But wait... Here's what I've come up with:
+$(patsubst %,install-%,$(boottargets-y)) install-vmlinux: vmlinux
+ $(Q)$(MAKE) $(build)=$(boot) BOOTIMAGE=$(boot)/$(subst install-,,$@) install
I think this will work. It would at least make PPC_MULTIPLATFORM usable:
$ make INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/target/g5 INSTALL_PATH=/target/g5/boot install-zImage.vmode
$ make INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/target/pseries INSTALL_PATH=/target/pseries/boot install-zImage
I'll do some more testing and post the resulting patch.
