Hello!

Need only linux on pico boards with:
- working ethernet/ipv4,
- working serial ports,
- working usb host for flash drive.

No imaging/cameras/rgb screens/npu/android and etc.
Need to disable/remove unused libraries and modules, like tests, vcodec, mpp and others.

What modules in congif files can be safely disable/delete?

How to disable/remove them correctly?

4. Maybe other config files can be checked, please, point path.

5. It is possible don`t download source archives after each 'clean'? Cache them or disable deleting "dl" folder with clean.

Thanks!

Hello, if you need to disable the Rockchip multimedia-related drivers, you can simply delete the insmod_ko.sh file under /oem/usr/ko. This is the easiest way to prevent these drivers from being loaded. If you want to disable them permanently, you need to disable the corresponding modules in the kernel. You can do this by using ./build.sh kernelconfig. After making the changes, they will be automatically saved as defconfig to prevent temporary settings from not taking effect.

Hello!

There are some features that can't remove safely, like samba and others.
Their links are in some configure files that don`t change with menuconfig. And need to comment them in Makefiles in different folders.
Some changes need to make in RkLunch.sh that placed in app folder, without it net interface don`t become "up" and don`t fix MAC for interface, seems it random each system boot (SoC does not have it?).

Still working on "clean unix" build for this system.

By now there a result:

Another question - have SDK ability to copy files from one folder to rootfs after build before packing?
I mean if I need to add some folders/files to firmware, can I place their structure in one place to auto copy/overwrite each build after CLEAN build before making firmware folder in IMAGE path. This is realized in openwrt and some other SDK for MTK family SoCs, but don`t find for Luckfox SDK. Maybe you can point me where to add own scripts or give an other solution.

Thanks!

You can use ./build.sh buildrootconfig to disable Samba. Afterwards, you can rebuild the image and flash it by running ./build.sh rootfs and ./build.sh firmware. If you need to add custom scripts after executing ./build.sh rootfs (or after building the system with ./build.sh), simply copy the files to <Luckfox_SDK>/output/out/rootfs_uclibc_rv1106. Finally, use ./build.sh firmware to package everything into the firmware.

Hi @alex9x!
I'm looking for small footprint image as well (net, serial, i2c/spi, usb).
Could you please share your final scripts ?
Thank you!

btw which startup time you was able to achieve with your minimal config ?
