[U-Boot-Users] regarding uboot

[prabha.j at tcs.com]

Sir,
My name is prabha. I have some questions regarding the uboot. I hope u 
will help me in this regard.
1.Actually i have a target as  intel board  with P4 machine and having 830 
as intel chip set. I searched whether uboot supports this architecture. I 
came to know that uboot supports very few intel boards. Now the question 
is how to bring up this board using uboot and how to get the toolchain for 
this board. Will uboot supports this architecture or not.
2. I am using p4 as my host m/c and untarred uboot1.1.3 and when i gave 
make  sc520_cdp_config  it gives Configuring for sc520_cdp board... and 
after this if i give make it gives error as 
 make

make[1]: *** [82559_eeprom.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/praba/u-boot-1.1.3/examples'
make: *** [examples] Error 2

Now the question is that should i have to build toolchain for this or not. 
Since this is a intel board i thought it will take the same gcc which host 
machine have and do the necessary steps. But i think it is not the case.
I didn't do any changes in the Makefile.
Please help me in this regard.
Regards
