For some reason the root node was missing in the NI 169445 flattened image tree source, leading to the following build error when attempting to generate the flattened image tree binary: ITB arch/mips/boot/vmlinux.gz.itb Error: arch/mips/boot/vmlinux.gz.its:90.1-2 syntax error FATAL ERROR: Unable to parse input tree /usr/bin/mkimage: Can't read arch/mips/boot/vmlinux.gz.itb.tmp: Invalid argument make[1]: *** [arch/mips/boot/Makefile:165: arch/mips/boot/vmlinux.gz.itb] Error 255 make: *** [arch/mips/Makefile:371: vmlinux.gz.itb] Error 2 Fix this by adding in the root node.
