[PATCH] [POWERPC] create a zImage for legacy iSeries

Stephen Rothwell sfr at canb.auug.org.au
Mon May 28 16:12:59 EST 2007


This zImage is really just the stripped vmlinux, but it means that there
is one less special case for iSeries and also that the zImages will be
built for a combined kernel build that happens to include iSeries.

This zImage boots fine on legacy iSeries.
