Re: [coreboot] [LinuxBIOS] Qemu compile for LinuxBIOSV2

[Myles Watson]

I know this should tell me something more than it does, but I'm hoping
it helps someone else.

Building v3 and v2 for Qemu fails for me on FC6 with binutils updated
to 2.18.50, but succeeds on FC6-64-bit with the same binutils built
from source.

The error messages are similar

Since they're both targeting the same architecture, that struck me as strange.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Myles
