Why would you want to know? We don't provide that kind of info for the other files either (which is good as the file names don't change then) Just run mkimage -l and/or boot it if you want to check. Ulf> And you have to modify the suffix for every project. Ulf> Much better to just create the link to uImage etc. Yes, as it's a per-project decission. I don't believe this is a big effort, most people only work on 1-2 projects. -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard
