Hi,
1) How many types of kernel images are available to
work with embedded linux.
What is your hardware platform? what kind of embedded linux your are referring?
If its uClinux, may be I can give some suggestions.
2) If i want to load complete kernel image in to
flash ,which type of image
should i use .
When you compile linux, you will get a ELF file as an output, In order to
execute
that elf file, you need an ELF loader. During the initial stages of development,
you can use some emulators, or JTAG debugger to load the image to the target.
If you want to flash the Image, you need to convert ELF for into binary format.
Since your questions are too generic, I am forced to give a generic answer.
regards
durai
