[U-Boot] [U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] Add support for LZMA uncompression algorithm.

Hi Luigi,
I am trying to add lzma decompress support in my u-boot-1.1.6 source code to load a lzma compressed linux initrd. Is there a lzma patch for u-boot source code available for download?
Thank you very much.

U-Boot 1.1.6 is extremely old. I suggest you dump it and switch to current code.

LZMA support is availale out of the box starting with the U-Boot 2008.10-rc2 pre-release.

Dear Wolfgang Denk,
It seems this is a new feature. I'll try it soon from the newest code.
Thanks

Warning! the initrd decompression is in charge to the Linux Kernel. U-boot code unpacks only the kernel image without ___Filesystem___
ciao

Thank you very much.

Hi luigi,
Thank you. Seems solution is:
Add lzma decompress initrd support
Add u-boot support mkimage's lzma format is enough.
Thanks
