All,
We are using U-Boot to start a new PPC platform. One of the things we need to do is to load hardware debug software and start it. U-Boot does this very well but we also need to load a data pack. This data pack is big for our flash but we can compress it. My question is how can I uncompress two stand alone images before starting one of them (the first one)? Before I start changing the code to do this for us I though I'd ask incase there is a way I have not been able to figure out yet. I have tried using mkimage and setting one to a Linux kernel image and the other one to a RAM disk but the RAM disk is not decompressed before being relocated.
