Subject:  bzImage not included in rootfs

Hi Chiz,

For future reference, when sending email to public open source mailing
lists, it's a good idea to use plain text and avoid HTML. Some lists will
actually block all HTML email.

The kernel image is installed in /boot by the "kernel-image" package. Most
images do not include this by default as many targets boot with the kernel
located on a separate system partition.

See the documentation for how to add new packages to existing image
recipes using variables like:

CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL += "kernel-image"
