* uImage_kwplug is just Linux - the kernel. The sources are mainly |
| 9 |
available on kernel.org. You need a cross compiler to build them for |
| 10 |
this particular Marvell CPU. Look on Gentoo documentation how to build a |
| 11 |
cross compiler and how to compile the kernel. |

* sheevaplug.initramfs - This is just the bootable userspace. Since we |
| 14 |
are at Gentoo, I guess it was produced using our cross-compiler |
| 15 |
toolchain which is embedded in the Gentoo's package manager. Look on our |
| 16 |
documentation how to build a cross compiler and cross compile with emerge. |

Keywords: crossdev, emerge, cross root compilation, cross compile kernel |

There are no secrets, everything is widely available |

Have fun ;) |
