[U-Boot-Users] Uboot uimage with ramdisk question

[Roman]

Hello,
I am trying to boot uImage from the parallel flash on at91rm9200ek board.
So far I can load the image and ramdisk separately.
I think that it is possible to load the kernel and the ramdisk together as one 
uImage file.

However, I have been unable to find any documentation regarding building one 
file with image and ramdisk in it.

I am using 2.6.14 kernel and uboot 1.1.4.

Please advice.
Thank you.
RK

No. What you mean is a "multi file image" which normally is NOT named
uImage (unless you want to confuse yourself).

Try again. Start at the FAQ section of the manual.
