Nicolas,
Could you please give a brief explanation as to why zImage is preferred over
Image in the current SA-1100 build? Our bootloader uses a built-in
compression scheme that I need to use, and the idea of compressing the
zImage is not appealing. My understanding is that the two images should be
the same (except zImage has to extract the piggyback kernel).
Thanks
Zach Welch
