[U-Boot-Users] I can not get u-boot working on my ixp425 board.

[Bernie Shu]

Hi, 
 
Thanks, Wolfgang. During my compiling, I got the following link error:
arm-linux-ld: ERROR: /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/arm-linux/3.2.1/be/libgcc.a(_udivsi3
.o) uses hardware FP, whereas u-boot uses software FP
 
I am new in this field. Could anybody tell me how to fix that? Or where can I get a arm cross-compiler which support software FP. I once tried to search from google. I got some info but not helpful enough.
 
Regards

	Then your cross toolchain is misconfigured / inadequate for this job.

	Don;t do this!!!

	Make sure to use a toolchain that supports soft-float.
