Honored ContributorI tried "make zImage" and looks like the kernel itself does not have source to do this.
Is there any method by which I can generate compressed kernel image. I am getting 2 MB image which is too big. I have chosen least kernel feature. Can any 1 help me generating compressed kernel image. I am using U-Boot and ep1c20 - altera eval board.
Honored ContributorzImage is not in microtronix's 1.4 release.
I created the patches, and it is in boot.zip , attached in post#1 of http://forum.niosforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3174 (http://forum.niosforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3174)Honored ContributorHi shakthi,

If you're using u-boot, just gzip the kernel binary: $ gzip --best vmlinux.bin >> vmlinux.gz Then use the compressed binary as the input when you run mkimage.
