Thanks for answering. |

The hardware is a x86-64 mini-ITX board, nothing unusual. Besides this, |
| 32 |
I'm working also in a Odroid XU-4, but this is not the issue. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
I'm using regular X11 video drivers, as this board has a regular Intel |
| 35 |
chipset. |

Explaining a bit deeper: |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
There is a development equipment, with dozens of development aids. As I |
| 40 |
don't want those in the disk image for production equipments, I have |
| 41 |
managed to do this by making a copy of the working root partition |
| 42 |
directories and files, remove portage related files and directories from |
| 43 |
this copy and, using the working partition as reference, rip-off unneeded |
| 44 |
packages files, like this: |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
for i in `equery -C f dev-qt/qt-creator` ; do if [ ! -d "$i" ] ; then rm -f |
| 47 |
/mnt/aux/gentoo/$i ; fi ; done |
| 48 |
|
| 49 |
Where /mnt/aux/gentoo/ contains that mentioned copy of all files of the |
| 50 |
development root partition. |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
The package "dev-qt/qt-creator" is just an example, there are several |
| 53 |
others which have their files removed from the copy of the root partition. |
| 54 |

Thanks and |

Best Regards, |
