Re: [PATCH] u-boot-script: Account for deficit in Ubuntu's linux-base

[Henning Schild <henning.schild@siemens.com>]

Working on the re-fork of our wic plugins i also stumble over that
vmlinuz vs. vmlinux. It is a mess we are causing ourselves.

I think we should simply stick to vmlinuz for all arches. Now some
bootloaders might need uncompressed versions ... but then these
bootloaders need to extract the kernel instead of the kernel coming in
another variant and way too many ifs and overrides later on.

So i would say let us see if we can switch all arches to vmlinuz and
only extract where we really need to ... will very likely be less
occasions than we have "special case code" right now.
