*-- * *Robert Nelson* *https://rcn-ee.com <https://rcn-ee.com/>* So question. Would precompiling the device tree binaries, then creating /lib/firmware, and placing the binaries in that directory not work ? No this is not a smart ass question - But I do think it would work, just not sure why it's not being done already. As far as adding weight, I totally get it. Jessie seems to be heavier by nature because . . . william@beaglebone:~$ cd /usr/share/locale/ william@beaglebone:/usr/share/locale$ sudo rm -r uk fr cs pl de vi nl sv ru es ja da it zh_CN ca hu tr eo id sl pt_BR bg fi sk pt william@beaglebone:/usr/share/locale$ cd ../doc william@beaglebone:/usr/share/doc$ sudo rm -r ./* william@beaglebone:/usr/share/locale$ cd ../man/ william@beaglebone:/usr/share/man$ sudo rm -r ./* Only netted me around 50MB. Image is still at 242MB, and it's getting pretty close to being as lean as I'd want it to be. Well I could gain another 40M from apt cache, and perhaps 40M from removing modules . . . But that's still 160M in size . . . way larger than Wheezy. Anyway, do I need you to package anything up for me ? No . . . I just wanted to make sure /lib/firmware was still correct for Jessie. Especially since I've ripped out systemd, and was unsure if there was another mechanism for device tree overlays, or not.
