Hi,
When following the documentation on building the kernel from here:
https://docs.nvidia.com/drive/nvvib_docs/index.html#page/NVIDIA%2520Vibrante%2520Linux%2520DPX%2520Development%2520Guide%2FSystem%2520Programming%2Fsys_programming_kernel_toolchain.html%23
The kernel is NOT used after reboot!
When doing uname -a, shown date of kernel tells that the OLD kernel is used.
The documentations states:
"To flash the built images, copy the compressed (zImage) and uncompressed (Image) kernel images to the kernel top directory with the following commands:
cp ${PWD}/out-t186ref-linux/arch/arm64/boot/zImage /vibrante-t186ref-linux/kernel-rt_patches
cp ${PWD}/out-t186ref-linux/arch/arm64/boot/Image /vibrante-t186ref-linux/kernel-rt_patches
Caution:
Before copying the new kernel images, create a backup of the default kernels provided."
Some questions on that:
It's told to copy the kernel image to "top directory" but command says "/vibrante-t186ref-linux/kernel-rt_patches".
Documentation tells to backup the default kernel. But I can't find any kernel image on the board!

Dear hasax,
Could you please let us know your build step in detail?
I think you already downloaded 4.1.8.0 Linux SDK via DriveInstall so the kernel image is in host pc not DPX2 board. Thanks.
