Does anyone know if there's a utility to remove the U-Boot wrapper from a uImage (gzipped kernel, etc)? I'm creating a single uImage with
U-Boot just prepends a 64 byte header (see include/image.h).
So "dd if=uImage of=kernel bs=64 skip=1" will do the job, as will "tail -c +65 uImage >kernel".
Just checking to see if there's something already out there of if this has been discussed before.
No need for special tools. Just use the standard Unix toolbox for file manipulation commands.

They weren't that important. They were merely at the top. The people
who really run organizations are usually found several levels down,
where it's still possible to get things done.
