I am confused about what the maximum image size is that you can still succesfully flash given a FLASH memory size. Is this the physical flash chip's capacity minus the size of the bootloader? How can you determine it?
On a related note (I guess) I get messages like
mini_fo: using base directory: /
mini_fo: using storage directory: /jffs
mini_fo: build_sto_structure: failed to create storage dir [1].
mini_fo: get_neg_sto_dentry: ERROR building sto structure.
mini_fo: create_sto_file: ERROR getting neg. sto dentry.
on boot of my build; does this mean my image was too big (it still sort of works though)
Finally, I wonder if there are build options that I need to set to shrink modules or strip them of symbols or something since my wl.o is no less than 850474 bytes, looks excessive to me?
Thanks!
