I think that buildroot can be the right way to do it ! I did a first test to build a cpio root fs with grub and a vmlinuz kernel : BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_CPIO=y BR2_TARGET_GRUB=y BR2_KERNEL_LINUX_ADVANCED=y BR2_LINUX_BIN_VMLINUX=y I did the "make", when buildroot ask me to configure the kernel, I changed nothing and i build this : ------------------ ls -hl output/images/ total 984M -rw-r--r-- 1 user user 855M 2010-06-24 20:29 rootfs.cpio -rwxr-xr-x 1 user user 129M 2010-06-24 16:56 vmlinux ------------------ I'm a little bit surprised by the size of the root fs and the kernel. I chekc the fs and I found that I have a lot of modules but I don't need of Xserver or wifi driver. How can I know modules that I can select or unselect in the make linux26-menuconfig" ? Is there somebody who have a .config to share ? Moreover, I think that during the building I can preapre the compact flash to receive the kernel and fs. Have you got a method to do it ? Thanks for your help. Best regards David
