[PATCH] microblaze: Removed U-Boot image creation from simpleImage rule

[Eli Billauer]

The simpleImage rule used to create a U-boot image as well, resulting in
a build error if the mkimage utility wasn't set up. A line in the Makefile
was removed, so "make simpleImage.(something)" now does what one should 
expect.

Agree that we should remove it but that patch is incomplete.
Please do these two more changes.
1. Remove uimage generation for linux.bin - the same reason as you describe
2a. Add support for linux.bin.ub or uImage if you like
2b. Add support for simpleImage.%.ub

I don't want to lose possibility to create u-boot formats.

Thanks,
Michal

Re: [PATCH] microblaze: Removed U-Boot image creation from simpleImage rule

Sorry, I didn't notice that simpleImage.% was the only target to get 
uImage as well.


In this patch there is no simpleImage.%.ub rule, as I got messed up with 
wildcard issues, and I didn't see any point in working on resolving 
them. In practice, I suppose one wants either an U-Boot image or a 
simpleImage. In case both are wanted, it's as simple as mention both in 
the make target.


Patch follows (I made a few other changes as well).
