Hi, on om-gta01 we had problem that even our minimal image shr-lite-image is too big for its 64MB NAND chip
We're slowly stripping packages not really needed, but it would be nice to remove whole /boot with kernel-image. Problem is that when we're booting on gta01, than /boot/uImage is used so it should be installed in .tar.gz image. But when booting from NAND, then kernel is usually in different NAND partition and /boot on rootfs partition is useless. In patch is what I used now to generate images like this, but it's not optimal at all 1) It copies whole rootfs 3 times if you have all jffs2/ubi/ubifs in FSTYPES, instead just once for -no-boot version (it's possible ie if we expect certain order of making FSTYPES or prepare -no-boot always with normal rootfs and don't remove it 2) task-base still depends on kernel-image and I don't see how to easily remove that dependency, without defining different image recipe and building it separately. So with next kernel upgrade user will get new kernel-image which will probably fail to install because of lack of space. Is there better way to solve it or should we try harder to save space somewhere else? _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
