kernel only booting into download mode. [solved]

[DerTeufel1980]

i am normally building my kernel standalone, but now i wanted to add inline-kernel-building support for it.

for this i have commited this:
https://github.com/DerTeufel/androi...mmit/70104d40af4355346590a84391882a70e53ccabc

and in my defconfig i am pointing to the initramfs to use:
CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="source/ramdisks/t0lte-combo/"

it's the same as i use always, just added source/ in front.

link to ramdisks: https://github.com/DerTeufel/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4412/tree/dualboot/ramdisks

if i am flashing the resulting boot.img now, the device boots straight into dl mode, even without asking to confirm it with power up.

what am i mssing here?

Ramdisk is not correctly packed on your boot.img or is a problem with boot partition. If is jump straight to download mode the boot.img is corrupted or missing.

Is there something wrong with my commit to /build? I had seen, galaxy s1 is building in a similar way

I have realised now, that on the s1 I just can take the zImage and rename it to boot.img to make everything work. This does not work for the note2. I guess this is the problem here.
My question is now, how can I modify the build system to create a proper boot.img, without adding the Ramdisk twice? By building the kernel standalone, I am only adding the modules to the Ramdisk. But for this I need to build the kernel and modules before building the Ramdisk. Anyone can tell me how to do this?

Thx, but sadly this is not what I am needing. I want to modify build system to build the boot.img the way I need it, not afterwards, because I want building the kernel to be automated.
