Loading a 3GB image (compressed to 4MB or not) is simply not going to work.

I will look into the kernel sections and try to figure it out. It maybe the problem with my compiler.

But my other major problem is that, what ever be the size of the kernel, it gives me a "Bad Data CRC". I tried with prebuild images from the openmoko (which are working images on openmoko 1.5MB) and still it shows me the same error. We have almost the same architecture as theirs. 

Does this have to do anything with the u-boot or some other issue?

Thank You,
Tiju.
