is there a method to minize kernel size using menuconfig and minial driver?
Hello list members, Is there a nice method to minimize the kernel Image size using 'make menuconfig'? I have to build a minimum linux Image supporting only interrupt controller, timer and uart.(for use in rtl simulation). (We are doing it for arm64) Any comment will be appreciated. Thanks! Chan Kim
Hi, Maybe have a look at 'make tinyconfig' or 'make allnoconfig' ? Just an idea.. Laurent, -- « On ne résout pas un problème avec les modes de pensée qui l’ont engendré. » « You cannot solve a problem with the same thinking that created it. »
Thanks, I tried tinyconfig but didn't work even after adding input device and serial support. Looks like I have to add some more. (the tinyconfig looked really simple in menuconfig) Maybe I'll try more later (allnoconfig too). Thanks. Chan
