minimize packagelists for 8MB-devices
Akira25 opened this issue · comments
After the 1.2.0-release we got feedback, that 8MB-devices ran out of flash memory and thus weren't able to store changes anymore. We should reduce the packageset to meet that needs.
- Fast solution would be, to remove some packets from the package-list. Unfortunately this would reduce the pre-installed functions. I'd propose to start with tools like tmux, etc. Users that need those tools could easily reinstall them via opkg.
- We could implement the function that we spoke of several times: The buildsystem could use a reduced packagelist for the 8MB devices. Thus we remain the useful tools on most devices.
Are there any further suggestions?
I think this issue should be moved to the builter repo.
with #96 we removed batman and dependencies, which could save around 174 kiB. That should hopefully be nough space to store some configuration modifications.
