mkimage is not part of the GNU toolchain.
You have to install it on your development host.
Try:
#yum install u-boot-tools

That solved that issue! THANKS!
I got the below:\
--
UIMAGE arch/microblaze/boot/simpleImage.vc707_fmcomms2-3
Image Name: Linux-3.17.0-gc89c81b
Created: Fri Jan 30 14:21:26 2015
Image Type: MicroBlaze Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
Data Size: 8452614 Bytes = 8254.51 kB = 8.06 MB
Load Address: 80000000
Entry Point: 80000000
STRIP arch/microblaze/boot/simpleImage.vc707_fmcomms2-3
Kernel: arch/microblaze/boot/simpleImage.vc707_fmcomms2-3 is ready (#2)

Is there any wiki explaining how to load up the resulting image via SDK into a running Microblaze (which I believe is the "arch/microblaze/boot/simpleImage.vc707_fmcomms2-3" file - is elf format?
I'll figure it out and post it here if I don't see a reply first, thanks!
