Hey Wenzong,

If you are using an Intel NUC, there is a recipe in meta-intel which is called core-image-tiny (not initramfs), that one is exactly what you are asking for, it builds the core-image-tiny-initramfs and then automatically creates a WIC image, which would be something similar to manually building core-image-tiny-initramfs and then doing:

$ wic create core-image-tiny -e core-image-tiny-initramfs


Hope that helps!

Great, that's what I want.

Thank you so much!

Hi Alex,

Do you have a case that generating an image with wic + tiny initramfs? If so could you please show me that?

I tried to create an image with below commands directly, I'm not sure if this is a proper test case:
$ wic create mkefidisk -e core-image-tiny-initramfs

While I booting it with USB + Intel NUC, it hangs at finding rootfs.

Thanks
Wenzong

core-image-tiny-initramfs was used to generate a wic image, which was conceptually wrong since initrafms recipes should only generate the boot artifacts that can later be used
by another recipe to generate an image using the tool of their choice.
