Hi,
I am able to successfully boot a zImage kernel with latest 2012.04
U-boot on mx28evk.
Now I want to boot a dt zImage version.
These are the steps I am doing:
make menuconfig and select [*] Support MXS platforms from device tree
make imx28-evk.dtb
make
cat arch/arm/boot/imx28-evk.dtb arch/arm/boot/zImage > arch/arm/boot/zImage_dtb
cp arch/arm/boot/zImage_dtb /tftpboot/zImage
Then I get the following result:
U-Boot 2012.04-00001-ga1f2367-dirty (Apr 23 2012 - 10:01:52)

Bad Linux ARM zImage magic!
Any idea of why this is failing?

Dunno, maybe you need further patch?

Why do you need to do that at all? Turn on CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT, and you
will be able to boot an DT kernel (without dtb append) in the
following command.
tftpboot 42000000 uImage; tftpboot 42800000 imx28-evk.dtb; bootm
0x42000000 - 0x42800000
Regards,
Shawn

Ok, turned CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT and set:
bootcmd_net=run netargs; dhcp 0x42000000 uImage; dhcp 0x42800000
imx28-evk.dtb; bootm 0x42000000 - 0x42800000

There could well be many additional reasons, but it's probably due to

Is it possible ? Do you not set CONFIG_ARM_APPENDED_DTB in kernel and
let kbuild doing the rest of the job ?
Is there some reason doing this ? I mean, the easy and tested way is to
produce an uImage, and start the kernel from U-Boot with "bootm
<address> - <dtb in ram>". Of course, CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT must be enabled,
it is currently not set in mainline for mx28.
