If I'm making requests and rambling at the same time, can people please speek up sooner? I won't mind, really. What I want is three things: 1) The 'mkimage' target must be done in such a fashion that it will never run into a 'cannot execute' problem. My suggestion is to have the Makefile do a: @chmod +x mkimage.sh Or so. In 2.5/2.6, the build system will handle this for you, automagically, on .sh files I believe. For 2.4, you must handle this explicitly. 2) Do we really need 'pImage' and 'uImage' or can we just have 'uImage' ? 3) I really (really!) want a patch for 2.4 and 2.5/2.6 at the same time. -- Tom Rini http://gate.crashing.org/~trini/ ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
