From ede16868be3fd65819e3ed13358c34d60e5d7ddd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Scott Rifenbark Date: Mon, 9 Apr 2018 11:43:22 -0700 Subject: concepts-manual: Updated Image Generation section. Added wording to note that the rootfs might be compressed depending on the IMAGE_FSTYPES setting, which would have to actually do compression. Also, fixed examples of "do_image_type" and "do_image_ext4" so that there is no "[depends]" as part of the example.
