Re: [U-Boot-Users] Raw binary u-boot.bin is bigger that elf file u-boot

This is really confusing since we get the raw binary by running the
"objcopy" tool on the ELF format file u-boot.
This can happen easily if there  are  (huge)  gaps  in  your  image's
address map. Run "objdump -h" to check this.

Any help on this shall be really helpful
Check your linker script and compare against the  memory  map  needed
for your hardware.
