linuxppc_2_4_devel: 2.4.20 rc2 - where's pImage build?

From: Tom Guilliams <hidden>
Date: 2003-05-15 03:30:38

Anyone know why the BOOT_TARGET define for "pImage" in arch/ppc/Makefile
was taken out?  Are we not going to support the build rule for
U-Boot/PPCBoot anymore other than building it manually (gzip vmlinux
then use "mkimage").

Thanks in advance,

Tom

Probably a bad merge.  Wasn't there a patch / request a while back to
update things (or just add it for 2.5?  I forget) that never got back to
me.  Anyhow, I'll try and put this back next week (finals week this
week) and see if I can get it up to Marcelo, provided someone else can
verify that it works right.

This patch adds support for PPCBoot and U-Boot (PPCBoot's successor).
