Bah. I thought when that text got changed around a bit ages ago (didn't it
used to say something just 'zImage') there was a bit of a thread/flame and
it was just left as an intel-ism, and hopefully users would still do the
'right' thing. Anyhow, the original patch just makes bzImage not fail as
an unknown target, but not actually do anything. The 'correct' way I
_think_ would be:
arch/ppc/Makefile:
bzImage: $(CHECKS) vmlinux
@$(MAKEBOOT) zImage
Or print out a msg saying to use 'zImage'. :)
