[ELDK] installing 5.6

[K Richard Pixley]

I have a question about how installation is supposed to work.

I've installed for powerpc-e500v2, using:

    sudo ./install.sh -d /opt/eldk-5.6 -a i686 -s toolchain -r "lsb-sdk
    minimal-mtdutils" powerpc-e500v2

(I've also tried toolchain-qte, they seem to behave the same in this
regard.)

And I'm trying to build a kernel using:

    export PATH :=
    /opt/eldk-5.6/powerpc-e500v2/sysroots/i686-eldk-linux/usr/bin:/opt/eldk-5.6/powerpc-e500v2/sysroots/i686-eldk-linux/usr/bin/powerpc-linux:$(PATH)

    export CROSS_COMPILE := powerpc-linux-
    export ARCH := powerpc

But I'm running into:

      LINK    vmlinux
      LD      vmlinux.o
    powerpc-linux-ld: cannot find libgcc.a: No such file or directory
    powerpc-linux-ld: cannot find libgcc.a: No such file or directory
    make[2]: *** [vmlinux] Error 1
    make[1]: *** [arch/powerpc/boot/uImage] Error 1

I find...

rpixley at victory> sudo find /opt/eldk-5.6 -name libgcc.a
/opt/eldk-5.6/powerpc-e500v2/sysroots/ppce500v2-linux-gnuspe/usr/lib/powerpc-linux-gnuspe/4.8.2/libgcc.a
/opt/eldk-5.6/powerpc-e500v2/rootfs-lsb-sdk/usr/lib/powerpc-linux-gnuspe/4.8.2/libgcc.a

How is gcc, (or ld), supposed to know where to find libgcc.a?  And why
isn't it?
