Hi Cyrille,
I'm trying to generate a FIT kernel image.
I'm using u-boot 1.3.4 / dtc 1.2.0.
All seems ok when i generates the FIT image
mkimage -l kernel.itb

But on u-boot prompt : => iminfo
## Checking Image at 00900000 ... Unknown image format!
I don't masterise all.
However, I have one question : FIT image support ARM architecture ?? All examples i found talk about PowerPC
I don't think that anybody tested FITs on ARM. On the other hand, the concept is generic, so _should_ be no real show stopper on the road. Otoh I would not be surprised if there are some minor problems waiting for you to find them....
For a start I'd try to include "CONFIG_FIT" in your configuration ;)
Cheers Detlev
