Tool to flash image files to block devices using the block map
|
bmaptool is a generic tool for creating the block map (bmap)
|
for a file, and copying files using the block map. The idea is
|
that large file containing unused blocks, like raw system
|
image files, can be copied or flashed a lot faster with
|
bmaptool than with traditional tools like "dd" or "cp".

|
to support bz2 compressed images
|
|
- BR2_PACKAGE_PIGZ for optimized gzip decompression
|
|
- Busybox compiled with CONFIG_LZOP, or BR2_PACKAGE_LZOP, to
|
support lzo compressed images.

|
- BR2_PACKAGE_ZIP to support zip compressed images
|
|
- BR2_PACKAGE_LZ4 to support lz4 compressed images
|
|
- BR2_PACKAGE_ZSTD to support zstd compressed images
|
|
- Busybox compiled CONFIG_FEATURE_SEAMLESS_* or
|
BR2_PACKAGE_TAR to support tar compressed images
|
|
- BR2_PACKAGE_OPENSSH to retrieve images over SSH.
|
|
- BR2_PACKAGE_SSHPASS to retrieve images over SSH if
|
password authentication is used.
|
