Subject: [PATCH 2/2] mips: add new target vmlinux.strip
Date: Fri, 14 Jul 2006 12:52:24 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <44B7F5F8.4050703@am.sony.com> (raw)

Adds a new make target 'vmlinux.strip', a stripped elf boot
image.  This target reduces image load time with bootloaders
that load elf images.
