Hi, 

I'm currently trying to adapt mini2440 platform to mini2451(by FriendlyARM). Leaving the topic of the bootloader a side, I currently have something functional with Ptxdist 2014.10.0.

I am able to compile everything well using the toolchain provided by Friendly ARM (old glibc -> no current udev support), the one provided by CodeSourcery (Sourcery G++ Lite 2009q3-67) or OSELAS.Toolchain.2013.12.2 (armv5t).

The rootfs generated works well despite the used toolchain. Nevertheless the generated zImage doesn't boot in the board when using the OSELAS toolchain. Has anyone had a similar problem or can figure what its happening here?


Thanks in advance.

P.D: Is it curious that the FriendlyARM toolchain is not even targeted to this processor.

I include here the 3 outputs of arm....gcc -version for reference:
