I see that the replacement for udev (eudev) in OE-core takes nearly 12MB on my i.MX6 (ARM CortexA7). This is nearly 25% of my total storage space (64MB NAND)!

Perhaps there is some way to only use one? Or maybe there is a better choice, such as mdev? I'm not sure about this (no experience) but my system needs to handle plug&play devices which the current eudev does well. It's just a huge "price" to pay. Any ideas or pointers would be great -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Gary Thomas | Consulting for the MLB Associates | Embedded world ------------------------------------------------------------ -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list [email protected] https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
