For both cases the resulting object file layout is different. mips*-elf uses SGI-style, mips*-linux uses "traditional" style. I expect the "traditional" format to get better long-term maintenance. For a stand-alone bootloader both do for now, but I would prefer mips*-linux since it eliminates the need for one extra compiler when building a Linux environment. Thiemo
