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.

It looks like some kind of a problem with a relocation somewhere. The
error is cryptic and of little help, I know, but I reckon diagnostics has
been a little bit improved in this area of the linker since 2.17, so it
would help if you upgraded binutils to 2.18.

The likely cause is:
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33755
As indicated in the PR, Richard has a patch that he is testing. I would
think that by the time gcc-4.2.3 is released that it would be fixed.
I would recommend using a non-4.2.x version of gcc until the problem is
fixed.
