[U-Boot-Users] reducing size of u-boot binary

hello, can any one please tell me how to reduce the size of u-boot.bin. i tried by disabling commands in the include/config/at91rm9200dk.h,as per the read me document even after this when i compile,i was unable to decrease the size.
thanks in advance. regards vibi sreenivasan

Hi, If u want to reduce the size via disable the command means see the file include/cmd_confdefs.h. Add the command which u want disable in the macro CFG_CMD_NONSTD. (Please Correct me if i am wrong)
Thanks and Regards Sivaji

How big is your binary, why do you need to reduce its size? I ask because most of the time this question is the result of a link gone bad where part of the linked binary lives in low memory space and part lives in high memory space. As a result, the .bin has a huge amount of filled (unused) data between the two.
Best regards, gvb
