Re: Why can't uncommpress kernel after download s-rec file via tftp?

Dear Dross Zhou,

in message [ref] you wrote:

I just added some config option in make menuconfig,
then make zImage and make s-recorde file.

What is this good for?

TFTP is a binary protocol, it needs a binary image,  not  a  s-record
file.

Then download this file into sdram vai tftp,it just
hang at uncompressing kernel image, and can't boot
kernle.

This is most probably due to the fact that your  firmware  expects  a
binary image but finds a text file.

What sort of firmware are you using anyway?
