[mx2] Use lzma kernel compression.
[openwrt.git] / target / linux / mx2 / patches-2.6.34 / 030-lzma.patch
1 This patch allows using a kernel image compressed with LZMA on ARM.
2 Extracting the image is fairly slow, but it might be useful on machines
3 with a very limited amount of storage, as the size benefit is quite
4 significant:
5 Gzip: Data Size: 1586352 Bytes = 1549.17 kB = 1.51 MB
6 LZMA: Data Size: 2135916 Bytes = 2085.86 kB = 2.04 MB
