The first quenstion in my mind when I read the post:

Odd...wasn't core-image-minimal purposedly lean, mutilated and without
kernel modules ?
(Not that really 'used' it, just booted 'cause was small and could
always fit on nand/nor)

It has always been like this: if one needs the kernel and the modules
can add that in his machine.conf.
For more demanding tasks, the next logical step is core-image-base.


My 2 cents
