You can boot old 2.4 based ROM's with kexecboot too.

We should not update kernel while using kexecboot. We can only update distr= o=20 (rootfs with kernel inside) in NAND. I'm not sure that we have too much ordinary users who will flash to NAND=20 instead of external SD/CF. Advanced user can boot from console-image from S= D=20 and 'flash' by hands according to some README/wiki instructions. Or we can= =20 provide special NAND-installer image for this. But anyway having something like legacy-updater.bb is good idea. =2D-=20 Yuri Bushmelev
