Getting the image section of the ELF file to load w/ VxWorks boot ROM

[diekema@bucks.si.com (diekema_jon)]

	I am having trouble loading the image section of the elf file
	(contains the gzip compressed Linux kernel) with the VxWorks boot
	ROM or the EST VisionICE on the EST SBC8260 board.  Both of these
	options appear to ignore this section.

	This problem was discussed on the linuxppc-embedded mailing list
	on 11/2[2-3]/99.  A few approaches were put forth, but not all the
	details were included.  Does someone have a recipe on how to solve
	this problem?

	CPU: EST Corp. est8260 -- MPC8260 PowerQUICC II SBC
	Version: 5.4
        BSP version: 1.2/3

	I have managed to use ".gzimage" instead of "image" as the
	section name and have changed the section flags, but I don't
	think this is enough.
