Kernel.img limit of 2MB #534

Hi there. I got a question about why there is a limit of the kernel.img of 2 Megabyte and what if the size is getting bigger than that? Would it be easy (and reliable) to increase that? Thank you! |

Circle uses a static memory layout and needs to know, how big the kernel text and data segments can be. 2 MBytes is the default, but can be easily increased by using the option This is reliable. The given value must be a multiple of 16 KBytes. |

-d KERNEL_MAX_SIZE=0x400000(to 4 MBytes for example) or by adding the following line to your Config.mk file:This is reliable. The given value must be a multiple of 16 KBytes.
