How to make a new burmilla kernel-config base on standard Linux kernel config? #105

Closed wonleing closed 1 year ago

In order to support some specific arm machine, We have to build burmilla kernel base on our own standard Linux kernel source and config. But the result is it report "error: out of memory" during system boot. My question is: How to make a new burmilla kernel-config base on a standard Linux kernel config? Any step to cut the size to a burmilla like one?

Most probably issue is that standard config includes too much drivers which why kernel and/or initrd gets too big. Disabling drivers which you do not need should helps.
