[Ltib] Way to calculate uncompressed image size..

[Stephens, Peter A.]

If I want to calculate the uncompressed size of an image can I just add
the packages I want.  Build it.  Change directories to "rootfs" and run
"du . -ckS"?  Here is an example...

address@hidden rootfs]$ du . -ckS | sort -rn | head -n 20
