Subject: [Buildroot] Remove all kernel modules from a buildroot build
Date: Fri, 2 Sep 2016 08:48:55 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <57C920D7.5070104@yahoo.de> (raw)
Hello,
I've successfully build a custom Linux system with buildroot (stable
release 2016.05) for the Raspberry Pi. Everything works fine so far and
buildroot is a really nice tool.
I've one question for which I don't find an answer in the docs or on the
web: the directory /lib/modules/4.4.8 contains all kernel modules and
consumes around 93% of the entiere root filesystem. My system does not
need any kernel modules and modules like dvb-* are included which I'll
certainly not used.
Is there a way of configuring buildroot to omit all this modules and
save the space and therefore reduce the image size?
Regards,
mythbu
