I have a new BeagleBone Black (rev C) and got it booting from SD with the 
Debian 4GB SD image from 2015-03-01

My goal is to cross compile a custom kernel on my Linux PC and update the 
necessary items on the Debian SD card.

So.... I got the 4.1.1 Linux kernel from here:

  git clone git://github.com/beagleboard/linux.git


And then built the new kernel like this from what I gleaned on the web:

  make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- bb.org_defconfig
  make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- uImage 
am335x-boneblack.dtb LOADADDR=0x80008000
  make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- modules
  mkdir MODULES
  make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- modules_install 
INSTALL_MOD_PATH=./MODULES
  cd MODULES
  tar czf target_modules.tgz lib

Success! Compiled with no errors. Now I have a uImage, a dtb, and a tarball 
of the modules to move the SD card.
BUT, when I look at the /boot dir on the Debian SD it seems to need vmlinuz 
and and initrd?

Can someone please advise on either how to use what I have built, or how to 
build what I need to update the SD card.
I'm not looking for an automated solution, I would rather understand the 
details at this point.

Regards,
Jalodi
