by running ld --version you check the host's ld version, not
the ld version of the cross tool-chain. please check with
$ powerpc-linux-ld --version

No, you have to find what is wrong with your ELDK installation
or environment settings, i think. What ELDK version do you use?
What linux kernel version is it exactly and how did you configure
the kernel? Which kernel config file did you use to configure the
kernel?

Best regards,
