I had success with ubuntu and ELDK 4.1.

Once the installation is complete, you have to edit the disk - e.g. 
boot normal ELDK installation and mount /dev/hda2 on /mnt.

[I have assumed the Ubuntu disk is mounted at /mnt]

(1) Add the serial device:
    mknod /mnt/dev/ttyPSC0 c 204 148

(2) Add the serial console. Create file /mnt/etc/event.d/ttyPSC0 with:
    # ttyPSC0 - getty
    start on run level-2
    start on run level-3
    start on run level-4
    start on run level-5

    stop on shutdown

    respawn /sbin/getty 115200 ttyPSC0

You should now be able to boot to Ubuntu and get a serial terminal.
