No, there's no partial root filesystem images generated at all. When the rootfs size is too big some targets become unbuildable (no image is generated at all; there may be an old one still present in the bin directory, but that's another question). But even though some targets can't be built that doesn't mean the other (that came later in the Makefile) shouldn't get built also (as some of them might have enough flash to accomodate a bigger image). That's how ar71xx works too. -- Be free, use free (http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html) software! mailto:fercer...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
