Question is in the title, I'm looking for a way to force the image builder to output the *-factory.bin even if it is too big. Will be flashed via u-boot TFTP.
Also, where are the maximum sizes for images declared ? I can't find anything appart from the SPI flash memory map in the .dts file. (real target is a MT7688 with 128MiB ram and 32MiB flash).
My final objective is to create a custom board and boot from an SD card.
Do you checked the build log for missing options...
Don't know what jgc-header requires...
The author of the commit for you modified device suggest a installation through tftp and this does not need a installation over the vendor web gui or something else...
Why do you need a factory bin?
Easy installation?
Please describe your goal more clearly...
Yeah, I'm designing a board so I would prefer first to be able to flash the firmware directly from uboot to quickly test different device tree and drivers.
I think you don't need a factory image for your purpose...
A factory image is mostly a wrapped sysupgrade image with additional headers or something else to match the requirements of a specific board / device vendor.
