[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH] config/Config-images.in: Fix wrong handling of ROOTFS_INCLUDE default options

[Jan Čermák]

Hello,

currently I think the best option for us is an ext4fs image with /boot in the
same partition, no squashfs+jfss2 or separated /boot partition. I saw that a few
targets are making ext4fs image, but is any of them following the current best
practices?

Cheers,
Jan
