Hi,
I'm trying to install an ESXi (x86) image of OpenWRT. Got it working fine,
but copied the sources and dependencies for OpenVPN over, and tried install
them manually, but ran out of space. I increased the size of the image from
55Mb  to 100Mb using instructions here,

https://macbruins.com/2011/11/15/expanding-x86-openwrt-root-partition/

and this worked, but when I tried to reinstall the packages I ran into the
size issue again. The machine isn't connected to the internet so couldn't
use the packages directly

I copied the packages to /packages
root@OpenWrt:~# ls /packages
kmod-tun_3.18.20-1_x86_64.ipk
liblzo_2.08-1_x86_64.ipk
libopenssl_1.0.2g-1_x86_64.ipk
openssl-util_1.0.2g-1_x86_64.ipk
openvpn-easy-rsa_2013-01-30-2_x86_64.ipk
openvpn-openssl_2.3.6-5_x86_64.ipk
zlib_1.2.8-1_x86_64.ipk

I edited my /etc/opkg.conf to this
dest root /
dest ram /tmp
lists_dir ext /var/opkg-lists
option overlay_root /overlay

but I ran into this problem with the install,
root@OpenWrt:~# opkg install /packages/openssl-util_1.0.2g-1_x86_64.ipk
Installing openssl-util (1.0.2g-1) to root...
