Hi all,
Sorry for such a kiddy question but I couldn’t find the answer.
I have a bit another device than expected. I have Banana Pi 3 device with Armbian-bpi-SpacemiT 24.5.0-trunk Noble and i'm trying to install a new kernel to it.
I've installed linux-allwinner kernel 6.8.0-60.63.1 and all the stuff with it.
linux-allwinner/noble-security,noble-updates,now 6.8.0-60.63.1 riscv64 [installed]
linux-headers-allwinner/noble-security,noble-updates,now 6.8.0-60.63.1 riscv64 [installed,automatic]
linux-image-allwinner/noble-security,noble-updates,now 6.8.0-60.63.1 riscv64 [installed,automatic]
linux-tools-allwinner/noble-security,noble-updates,now 6.8.0-60.63.1 riscv64 [installed]
And current boot kernel looks like
```
# mkimage -l /boot/Image

The question is - How to make from vmlinuz-6.8.0-60-generic a kernel with the same format like above ?
When I try to make it like this `mkimage -A riscv -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x01400000 -e 0x01400000 -d /boot/vmlinuz-6.8.0-60-generic /tmp/Image`
I have another kernel format.
