[U-Boot-Users] build u-boot error: No rule to make target `.depend', needed by `_depend'.

[Steven Woody]

Dear Denk,

1.2.0 is come frome eldk-4.1 iso file.  Downloading independent u-boot
seems require `git' tool which I get problem with because my office
network gets many limits.  Is there a http way to download u-boot?

For 1.2.0 building, I made error because I don't set $CROSS_COMPILE,
it's my fault.  I will try your method tomorrow.  Thank you very much!
