a couple more simple (and quite possibly dumb) questions, if i might
... built a new squashfs image for my TL-MR3220 based on the config
file at the downloads page:

 https://downloads.openwrt.org/barrier_breaker/14.07/ar71xx/generic/

built fine, haven't flashed yet but ...

  first, is there a make target to build just the squashfs image? the
default config file for ar71xx selects piles of packages to be built
with "=m", but for speed, i'd rather avoid doing all that compiling
right now.

  i've seen the wiki entry as to how to hack the .config file to turn
off all those "unnecessary" packages:

http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/easy.build?s[]=disable&s[]=perl#disable.unnecessary.packages

but that seems like overkill. is there a specific make target for just
the flashable image?

  also, while in "make menuconfig", i noticed under "Global build
settings" the entry "Select all packages by default", but i have no
idea what that means and there's no help info for that.

  does it mean that even unselected packages will be treated as if
they were selected with "=m"? or what? some help info there would be
handy.
