Subject: [PATCH] parisc: switch to gzip-compressed vmlinuz kernel
Date: Sat, 29 Jun 2013 13:31:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130629113124.GA1320@p100.box> (raw)
The latest palo (PA-RISC Boot Loader) allows loading of a
gzip-compressed vmlinuz kernel. So let's switch to build a vmlinuz file
when we build a palo boot image.
PALO version 1.9 (or higher) is required for this which is available in
the dev_gzip branch of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/palo.git
