I dove further down the rabbit hole and I think to know why this happens. the deb package creation happens before the initramfs bundle/creation. Most likely this has its good reasons for that order (regarding dependencies) but in our case this means that the deb file only contains a fitImage with a device tree. (Not good for us). Perhaps this is a deb thingy and does this not happen with RPM or IPK, but I didn't dove into that due to the limited time I had. So our solution for the time being will be to execute a rootfs post process command that copies the correct fitImage into the boot folder which will end up in my ubi image. Hopefully someone will find this information useful. -- With kind regards, Jeffrey Simons Software Engineer Royal Boon Edam International B.V.
