You'll probably need to enable cuImage support in the kernel, at the very least. No one keeps track of whether newer kernels work with older U-Boots, so there's no way to know in advance whether a specific kernel and a specific device tree and a specific (older) U-Boot will work together. -- Timur Tabi Linux kernel developer at Freescale _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
