Well, that sort-of depends on which 'embedded' board you're talking about really. And the trade-off between the work needed for a hacked-up 1 off, the space that could be saved by doing this, and the space that could be saved elsewhere. Perhaps on the embedded_in_my_fridge machine it might make sense, but not ever embedded device is quite so tiny and strapped for space. -- Tom Rini http://gate.crashing.org/~trini/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
