Comment 8 for bug 506761

Thanks Zhang, sadly thats not the way it can work in ubuntu, we build a package of the kernel (natively on an armel machine) which then puts out a vmlinuz file to be used with the various supported bootloaders (redboot/uboot). for creating a bootloader specific variant of the kernel image we need to use the bootloader specific tools (in this case mkimage). cross compiling beyond cases for quick tests is no option in ubuntu and bootloader specific modifications can not happen in the kernel package but have to be handled by bootloader scripts (see redboot-tools which we use for redboot image creation).

one very helpful information that is missing in all freescale docs i found about uboot would be the options that are used for mkimage to create the uImage file at freescale. would it be possible for you to verify that we are using the right adresses here ?
