HI Sayiram, Thanks for the info, I was looking something like mkuboot.sh which is used in u-bootloader which can automatically create, hex,bin and elf images on compilation. All these days I worked on arm-elf-gcc based compiler, I m not sure how to do it with eabi compilers as it is not a elf format!
If output was in ELF format we could have used linux-arm-eabinone-objcopy to convert ELF to BIN, but is not possible with eabi compilers. I do some work arounds with compilation scripts to resolve this problem Thanks Rajesh On Wed, Feb 25, 2009 at 12:47 PM, Sayiram K N <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi Rajesh > there are tools available to convert from bin to hex. just google it.only > thing is you have to specify the offset > > > > On Wed, Feb 25, 2009 at 11:51 AM, Rajesh N <[email protected]>wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> I would like to know , how to convert zImage from binary format to >> hexadecimal format ? >> I have seen this doing in u-boot boot loader, I am not very sure how to >> do it with linux-arm-eabi- toochains ??? >> >> If any system scripts which needs to be changed , kindly let me know. >> >> If this hex format conversion is not possible, could u kindly help me out >> in producing a Binary format of zImage? which when I check'd zImage file >> format using command "file" , it displays it as ": data" on Ubuntu , but >> when I checked on open source resources they mention it as binary, I am not >> sure with this , kindly let me know u r views on it.. >> >> >> -- >> Best Regards, >> Rajesh N >> >> >> >> >> >> -- Best Regards, Rajesh N --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ unsubscribe: [email protected] website: http://groups.google.com/group/android-porting -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
