Thanks for pointing out to it. I did it this way for two reasons: - IMAGE_FSTYPES was already modified in edgerouter.conf - I wanted to enable generation of wic.bmap for subset of machines, i.e. only for hardware reference BSPs mentioned in README.hardware If there is a better to do it I'd be happy to update my patch. -- Regards, Ed -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
