A stripped ELF file is not going to have any debug information (eg. the source file from which a bunch of binary objects in a particular segment was compiled). If you're creating the boot image you might need to tweak things so the debug information doesn't get stripped out during the build. The debug information is stored in DWARF tables inside of the ELF file. Try playing with the --debug-dunmp and the --dwarf-* options to readelf. -- Stephen M.
