mainline kernel

u-boot from APX

This should allow you to send u-boot, kernel and initramfs to any tegra2 board which can be in APX mode without
modifying internal storage.

build u-boot

dpavlin@klin:/klin/u-boot$ cat env.sh 
export CROSS_COMPILE="arm-none-eabi-" ARCH=arm
dpavlin@klin:/klin/u-boot$ . env.sh 

dpavlin@klin:/klin/u-boot$ make paz00_defconfig

make

create initrd with new modules

dpavlin@klin:/klin/Tegra/linux$ cat tegra-ramdisk.sh 
#!/bin/sh -xe

test -d initrd && rm -Rf initrd

mkdir initrd
cd initrd

gzip -cd  /tmp/initrd.img | fakeroot -- cpio -i -d -H newc --no-absolute-filenames

rm -R lib/modules/*

cd ..
make modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=initrd/ INSTALL_MOD_STRIP=1

cd initrd

find . | cpio -o -R 0:0 -H newc > ../initrd.new.cpio

cd ..

gzip -f -6 initrd.new.cpio

/klin/u-boot/tools/mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -n uInitrd -d initrd.new.cpio.gz uInitrd.new

run it to create initrd:

u-boot loads detects initrd (it's small enough thanks to MODULES_STRIP to be detected without CRC errors) but no output from kernel.
