root/: root file system (including init, init.rc). Mounted at /.

ramdisk.img: ramdisk image generated from "root/". Not used directly

boot-imx6q.img: composite image for i.MX 6Dual/6Quad SABRE-SD, which includes the kernel zImage, ramdisk, dtbs, and boot parameters

Default android behaviour is to generate all ramdisk.img, boot.img, system.img, vendor.img etc.. in out

We can build kernel seperately (make inside kernel directory) and boot.img (make bootimage)
