Subject: [PATCH] ARM: Kconfig: fix example for ARM_APPENDED_DTB
Date: Fri,  1 Sep 2017 13:15:20 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1504268120-17237-1-git-send-email-vladimir.murzin@arm.com> (raw)

Help message for config ARM_APPENDED_DTB suggests following example to
append dtb to zImage:

cat zImage <filename>.dtb > zImage_w_dtb

and that makes unaware user wondering why Linux doesn't boot.

So fix example with ">>". Unfortunately, the same example is present in
message to commit e2a6a3aafa98 ("ARM: zImage: Allow the appending of a
device tree binary").

 	  With this option, the boot code will look for a device tree binary
 	  (DTB) appended to zImage
-	  (e.g. cat zImage <filename>.dtb > zImage_w_dtb).
+	  (e.g. cat zImage <filename>.dtb >> zImage_w_dtb).
 
 	  This is meant as a backward compatibility convenience for those
 	  systems with a bootloader that can't be upgraded to accommodate
