OpenWrt [mktplinkfw] *** error: images are too big

本人在编译OpenWrt，可能是选多了，导致最后报错：

make[5]: [install] Error 255 (ignored)

[mktplinkfw] kernel length aligned to 1132396
[mktplinkfw] *** error: images are too big

意思就是编译出来的内核超出了Flash的容量。

本人注意到第2行的命令：

... mktplinkfw -H 0x07400004 -W 1 -F 4Mlzma -N OpenWrt -V r45594  -s -X 0x40000 -k ...

其中 "4Mlzma" 特别明显。

我们的目标机是改进版的 TP-Link WR740，Flash 8M， RAM 64M。这么说来，这个 "4Mlzma" 应该改成 "8Mlzma" 才合适。

那该在哪儿改呢？

这是我改后的patch文件：

(END)

再编译，就OK了。
