That sounds about right, I have ~30MB for the Desire Z. Remember it only contains hardware abstraction layer components, no dalvik etc. > 2) the /boot on the ace i 4mb. The boot.img is 5.1mb.

I managed to shrink the kernel size considerably by changing kernel compression to XZ and disabling a lot of kernel features. Now I don't have IPv6 (I might have disabled bluetooth as well?) and a bunch of other stuff, but at least it can boot. The "kernel" file in out/target/product/vision is now only 1.9MB, but that still was not enough. I also had to remove libcrypto.so from the initrd because it's really huge. That breaks adbd, so I removed that as well. In order to do early boot debugging, I remember had to use adbd once. I think I disabled printk support in the kernel in order to make it even smaller than 1.9MB so libcrypto would fit into /boot. Or maybe I disabled some safety checks in boot.img creation that require some free space left, or maybe both.. I don't remember. See this file to remove adbd and libcrypto.so: [It also changes the touch boot script to use the correct partitions, you probably don't want that part.] https://github.com/w-flo/android_device_htc_vision/blob/ubuntu-system-image/shbootimg.mk Regards, Florian -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Post to : ubuntu-phone@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
