[U-Boot] Building U-Boot under Ubuntu 8.10

[cmfairfa at rockwellcollins.com]

I'm trying to build U-boot (2009.03) under Ubuntu 8.10.

I get the following error when building:

"as: unrecognized option '-mppc'"
"make[1]: *** [hello_world.o] Error 2"
"make[1]: Leaving directory '/opt/u-boot/examples'"
"make: *** [examples] Error 2"


I've built the same U-Boot source code on a windows XP machine with 
colinux.


Can anyone provide insight into how I can fix this?


Thanks.
