Hello Roman, I am currently building 2.6.13 apus debian kernels, and noticed the following. The apus patch is now lacking the vmapus target in arch/ppc/boot : vmapus: $(TOPDIR)/vmlinux ifdef CONFIG_APUS $(STRIP) $(TOPDIR)/vmlinux -o images/vmapus gzip $(GZIP_FLAGS) images/vmapus endif I don't know if this is intentional or not, but i will simply ship the vmlinux now, and use the mkvmlinuz tool to produce the resulting kernel, which would be more in line with the rest of the powerpc subarches. I have some questions concerning strip though, mkvmlinuz doesn't use strip, but objcopy -O binary, which produces slightly smaller sizes. Do you know if this would be ok for apus too, or will it strip too much ? Friendly, Sven Luther |
