Hi Stefann

Hi Stefann
Install  advcomp.tcz.

Almost!…… This worked:

Code: [Select]

tc@hp510:~$ tce-load -wi advcomp.tczBut thanks for the tcz name. I would not have found that otherwise

But no luck…

Code: [Select]

tc@hp510:/krubo/work/TC/linux-6.18.28/arch/x86/boot$ advdef -z4 bzImage
File type not supported on bzImage [at void convert_inplace(const string&):redef.cc:498]
Note…
Probably no activity anymore today.
As said I’m on a trip.
Social obligations now and sleep after that (living in Europe/netherlands)

It wants the file name to end in .gz    But if you did not have advcomp.tcz installed when compiling the kernel, then it did not get fully compressed.

With advcomp installed just remove the old bzImage from arch/x86/boot.    Then run "make bzImage" again

It should go faster as it should not have to recompile most of the code from the last run.

Done, but not really different size

Ehh… I get in social trouble if I spend more time on this now :-)
Any input will be followed up tomorrow
