Hi all,

I want to ask one more question based on this.

I have understood how to add a new kernel, but if I want to
deliver this to a customer what are the steps to follow?

Making it more clear, I got the LTIB from a freescale ISO.
I will be making source level changes to u-boot and kernel
for a custom board based on M5485EVB, and I want to deliver
this to a customer in the same form(LTIB ISO).

It will be easy for my customer to build and deploy using standard ltib
commands without having to dig in detail about u-boot
and kernel building process. How to achieve this?

Regards,
Arun C
