If you are using libreboot from the git repository, make sure to do the following:<br/>
$ <b>cd coreboot/</b><br/>
$ <b>make crossgcc-i386</b><br/>
+ $ <b>make crossgcc-arm</b><br/>
$ <b>cd ../</b><br/>
This will download coreboot's reference cross-compile toolchain,
which is highly recommended by the coreboot project.
