Hi all,
Is there a way to obtain uncompressed kernel image for ARM architecture?
I'm trying to build a kernel and a root filesystem for Raspberry Pi from an
internal buildroot toolchain with uClibc, but the only supported formats
for the output kernel image are vmlinux, uImage and zImage.
Downloading the kernel sources from the Raspberry Git repositories, and
building them manually, an image file called "Image" is generated under
".arch/arm/boot/" folder, but this file doesn't exists if the building
process of the same sources is made by Buildroot.
Maybe using BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_IMAGE_TARGET_CUSTOM?
Thanks in advance.
Greeting, David.

Currently I have in my queue patches for RPI bootloader + kernel. Need
to do some testing
and the I'll post it to ML.

This is a reasonable feature request, but for the case of the
Raspberry Pi although we used to have problems with booting compressed
kernels, they should now work fine and so you can happily use a zImage
for your kernel.img

Maybe you've seen that but to be sure ;):

Well, confirmed. zImage file format is supported.
Thanks!!
