I am working on getting e-image working on the SL6000 tosa. as of right now I can only use e-image-core due to the fact that it is 34mb and the tosa has a ROOT_FLASH_SIZE=32. At least this is my undestanding.
What are the reasons I would not want to change this to using 45 instead or 32 or some other number? Also if this is not where i need to make the changes where woudl this need to be done? |

Currently you can not change your rootfs size in OZ because a) updater.sh doesn't support repartitioning b) the rootfs size is (IIRC) hardcoded into the kernel |

But if you'd like to work on allowing the rootfs size to change (looking at what pdaX/cacko have used, etc., I'm sure people would be quite happy.
