Linux-2.6.18.8 compilation errors with GCC-4.2.1 and binutils-2.17 on MIPS

[veerasena reddy]

Hi,

I tried to compile Linux-2.6.18.8 for MIPS24KE
processor using cross-compiler built from gcc-4.2.1,
binutils-2.17 and uClibc-0.9.27. But, the compilation
failed with below error message ("mips-linux-ld: final
link failed: Bad value"):

has anybody faced similar problem?

Could you please help in resolving this?

Thanks in advance.
