Dear Forum,

I am new to buildroot. I am happy to be able to generate a booting  
uImage for my board and wonder how to generate a compressed one. u- 
boot is claming that my uImage is uncompressed.

Thanks for any help

regards

Stefan

On ARM, the internal kernel compression is used, and not the
compression offered by mkimage/uImage. So even if mkimage claims your
image is not compressed, it in fact is.

Unless you're not talking about ARM, of course.
