Anyone interested in bzip2'd modules? I just took my 2.6.22 modules... Unstripped - 47Mb Strippped (-g) - 45Mb Gzipped - 15Mb Bzip2'd - 13Mb any thoughts? the module-init-tools code is pretty simplistic to patch with bzip2 support. With that maybe an option under module-init-tools to automagically gzip/bzip2 them? Obviously this adds some overhead requiring libz or libbz2 ... 100kb odd. -N -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
