Re-checked the configs from my last build (available at ftp://ftp.maddes.net/openwrt/backfire/brcm-2.4/build_21402/squashfs/) In the menu config it is "CONFIG_PACKAGE_kmod-tun=y", but in the kernel and final/used config it is "CONFIG_TUN=m". So the better squashfs compression was what helped me. T

If you are really bored, you could use gcc 4.5 and link time optimization. Support for it is already enabled in the openwrt gcc, but you have to add the compiler flags to use it to packages and/or the kernel. In theory, it could reduce the binary size, but I have no idea how well this will work in

Sorry, my description was inaccurate. In 'make menuconfig' the sign is '*' when pressing 'Y' and in the resulting config file it is '=Y'. @Bernhard: So this adds kernel modules to the squashfs image and not to the kernel image, and therefore I only benefitted from the better squashfs compression?

Actually, Y in menuconfig doesn't add the modules into the kernel, they will still be kernel modules. It only places the modules directly in the image and is in no way different from Y for programs. M creates packages for the modules/program without placing it in the image. If you want to compile a

That's how it works. Y adds kernel modules to the kernel, and programs to the image. ..ede On 09.05.2010 18:10, Matthias Buecher / Germany wrote: > In 'make menuconfig' I included them with 'Y' instead of 'M'. > According to my (newbie) knowledge that adds them to the kernel image. > Can somebody

In 'make menuconfig' I included them with 'Y' instead of 'M'. According to my (newbie) knowledge that adds them to the kernel image. Can somebody please confirm my understanding? Or at least prove me wrong? :D Maddes On 09.05.2010 17:56, Stefan Monnier wrote: >> Put all kmods (2) I needed into th

[OpenWrt-Devel] SDCard preinit script

Hello list, Over the past couple of weeks, I've been trying to make extroot run on an SDcard. I came up with an sdcard preinit script, which is nothing more that the stock sdcard init script modified so as to run from preinit, and I was told to drop a line in here. I'm not sure how good it is

I could finally install everything onto my 4MB WRT54g v2.2. Avoided ntpclient plus dependencies with the patch from #7316. Added BusyBox's ether-wake to the build. Put all kmods (2) I needed into the kernel. This freed up enough JFFS2 space to normally install OpenVPN and a web-interface (here web
