U can use mkimage to make your binary image (kernel + fs), it is included with the u-boot sources in the tools directory.

Hi Everybody,
Iam working on changing the bootloader from redboot to u-boot 1.1.6 for my customised target board having IXP422 chipset. The board had two files, one was the redboot bootloader (bin) file and second was the Image ( Kernel & Application .rmt) file. I guess that this Image file would not be dependent on the bootloader. Am i rite?
I have managed to get the console and network of U-boot 1.1.6 up on my customised board with the help of this forum :)
Now I would like to port the existing Image. How can I do it. Can anyone help me with this?
I have tried changing the "bootfile" env variable with the location of my image and reset the board, it gives the load address as 0x200000 then loading and some # hash's as if its loading something, inbetweens it gives, "bad checksum" and ends with the statement "bad magic number"
then i tried giving "tftpboot 0x00200000 uImage" it did almost the same , load address 0x200000, loading with some Hash # and then then gav ethe number of bytes tranfered, this time no error message. then i tried bootm 0x200000but it said... booting image at 0x00200000 and then BAD MAGIC NUMBER.
how should i proceed with this. Pl Help!
