We never install a uImage as /boot/vmlinu[xz]-*. From the very beginning of the sh4 port in <https://bugs.debian.org/569034>, we've built a zImage for this flavour even though the upstream default is a uImage. If it's necessary to install a uImage somewhere then that tends to be done by flash-kernel, but I don't see any sign of sh4 support there. It rather seems like this board was never properly supported in Debian. If you're interested in fixing that, then please: - Do the uImage conversion and installation manually and test the result. - If it works, add a configuration for this board to flash-kernel. Otherwise, let me know and I can delete this flavour. Ben. -- Ben Hutchings If the facts do not conform to your theory, they must be disposed of.
