Got same error when starting to play around with uclinux some time ago.  

Hope I remember right when I tell you to check  

 

a) your branches 

b) your toolchain 

 

So when working without mmu you should use nios2gcc-20080203.tar.bz2 and test-nios2 branches,  

when working with mmu you should use toolchain-mmu and branches trunk (uClinux-dist) / nios2 (linux-2.6) 

 

Hope this helps.

I solved this problem with mount USB on uclinux and you shouldn't update source

A quick 'RTFM' shows that the 'initda' instruction was added in rev 8.0 in May 2008. So it is likely that the toolchain you are using predates that change.

Which toolchain do you use and which branch do you use (mmu / nommu)?

I am using pre-build toolchain nios2gcc-20080203.tar.bz2 and test-nios2 branches(uClinux-dist and Linux-2.6).

I can remember that this was the wrong toolchain for systems with mmu. nios2gcc-20080202 prebuilt toolchain was for use with nommu-systems. The error message you posted looks like this is the problem here, too.

Maybe you should build the tool chain like: 

 

cd nios2-linux/toolchain-build 

git clean -f -x -d# clean on restart 

make gcc 

make elf2flt 

 

Then,use the new compiler you made. 

 

PATH=$PATH:/home/(user name)/nios2-linux/toolchain-build/build/nios2/bin

Sorry to annoy you all but I'm trying to build the uClinux on DE2 Cyclone 2 (an old kit). I've had the same error and as far as I realized this is because the nios-linux version is new (nios2-linux-20120802) so may be it's not compatible with the NO MMU. However, I can't find any old version of this file like nios-linux-20090730 since all the links died. So anyone can show me how to fix the problem or provide with the link to download the old version to test.  

Thank you all.
