try
fis del vmlinux
fis create zImage
the del and create have to refer to the current entity you are dealing with,
which is vmlinux in flash and zImage just downloaded.
Also you will need to change the boot script using fconfig, as the current
script loads vmlinux and now you need to load zImage, the image name you just
saved.
Hope this helps
Bob
