¡Hello everyone! I would like to know were I can read info or docs in order to get a smaller basic image for my Gumstix (for example, I do not have Bluetooth). I need to get any byte I can.

Here's my suggestions for getting a root filesystem for my verdex that's well under 6 MB, using OE. I copied gumstix-custom-verdex.conf and task-base-gumstix.bb from com.gumstix.collection to their parallel place in my user.collection. In user.collection/conf/machine/gumstix-custom-verdex.conf I only have the following MACHINE_FEATURES enabled, all others are commented out: MACHINE_FEATURES += "usbhost" MACHINE_FEATURES += "serial" MACHINE_FEATURES += "mmc" MACHINE_FEATURES += "ethernet" MACHINE_FEATURES += "fat" Only include features you're going to use. (I sometimes include "sound".) In user.collection/packages/tasks/task-base-gumstix.bb I have commented out several components: # kernel-module-usbserial \ # kernel-module-ftdi-sio \ # kernel-module-cdc-acm \ # kernel-module-sd-mod \ # kernel-module-scsi-mod \ # kernel-module-usbnet \ # kernel-module-usbmouse \ # kernel-module-mousedev \ # alsa-utils-speakertest \ # kernel-module-snd-pxa2xx-ac97 \ # kernel-module-snd-soc-gumstix \ In particular, the speakertest package has some big wave files! And all those usb devices is overkill. I then build only the minimal image, which leaves out several packages that have large database files. Here's the script I run from the top-level directory: #!/bin/sh -u rm -rf tmp/rootfs for package in gumstix-kernel task-base-gumstix gumstix-minimal-image ; do echo echo ${package} bitbake -v -c rebuild ${package} || (echo failure: ${package} ; false) || exit 1 done Your mileage will vary. -Hugh |
