[U-Boot] [patch 1/2] Enable the use of an uncompressed kernel image for U-boot uImage

[Wolfgang Denk]

Dear Remy,

This is an interesting feature, but...

.. I think it is wrong to make this a configuration option. Instead, a
separate make target should be used so you can actually chose which
image you wantr (or even both versions) without having to reconfigure
/ rebuild the kernel.


Best regards,

GUIs  are  virtually  useless.  Learn  tools.  They're  configurable,
scriptable, automatable, cron-able, interoperable, etc. We don't need
no brain-dead winslurping monolithic claptrap.
