Smaller firmware images fir low memory devices

Hey, I just discovered that packages that are on the firmware image when updated are not getting replaced on memory, so you have essentially the package twice on the device. This is a problem for devices which have very little storage space.

Is it possible to build only the very very basic packages and put them into the image and later install the other packages from opkg to be able to update them more regularly but not use up all storage space?

Thanks in advance

Just don't do it.

answer is luci-app-attendedsysupgrade.
