Su= re the uImage is to be used with u-boot, but I see the value of having a ge= neric ARM toolchain and that still allows me to create uImage files. The mk= image binary adds about 80 KB in a 273 MB toolchain (doesn't seem too much)= . If we're adding u-boot to the SDK then we should add every bootloader. But why install grub for a PPC SDK? This is why I suggested adding the right bootloader for each machine. Ross
