Not that I ever tried, but you should check uboot-mkimage: ====== luca@gismo:~$ apt-cache show uboot-mkimage Package: uboot-mkimage [...] Description: generate kernel image for U-Boot This package contains the mkimage utility, which encapsulates a compressed "uImage" Linux kerel image with header information, CRC32 checksum, etc, for use with the U-Boot bootloader. . mkimage can also be used to create ramdisk images for use with U-Boot, either separated from the Linux kernel image, or combined into one file. mkimage encapsulates the images with a 64 byte header containing information about target architecture, operating system, image type, compression method, entry points, time stamp, CRC32 checksums, etc. luca@gismo:~$ ===== Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca
