Subject: [PATCH] optional use "gzip --rsyncable" for bzImage - 2
Date: Wed, 16 Nov 2005 14:15:58 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200511161415.58844.philipp.marek@bmlv.gv.at> (raw)

> As (at least in debian) gzip has the "--rsyncable" parameter included, 
> I'd like to suggest this patch to (configurable) use this for bzImage 
creation.

> The default is "N" to stay compatible with current behaviour.

that?


Sorry, my test compile just finished with an error.
