* IMAGE_FSTYPES for u-boot initrd images? @ 2009-08-24 15:16 Steffen Sledz 2009-08-24 15:35 ` Andrea Adami 0 siblings, 1 reply; 3+ messages in thread From: Steffen Sledz @ 2009-08-24 15:16 UTC (permalink / raw) To: openembedded-devel It seems that it is currently not possible to build root fs images ready for use as u-boot initrd. Did i overlook something or is this right? Similar to the do_uboot_mkimage() there should be a funktion which wraps a cpio.gz image. Can someone help?

Another image using a cpio.gz and a custom init is initramfs-kexecboot-image. Regards Andrea ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

Good examples for initrd/initramfs. But that's not the point. These recipes create cpio.gz images but not images ready for u-boot. Such images need to be wrapped with [uboot-]mkimage similar to kernel uImages. Would be great to have support for this in a central place, to be able to choose e.g. cpio.gz.uimage in IMAGE_FSTYPES.
