Hi, I have a need to copy my bundled initramfs+kernel image into the main filesystem image. So far I have failed miserably...
I have tried to achieve this by: 1) adding a new kernel PACKAGE and adding the bundled image file to it 2) moving the 'bundle_initramfs' task in kernel.bbclass before do_package (rather than before do_deploy) 1) on its own is not helpful, because do_bundle_initramfs hasn't run yet, i.e. the resulting package will be empty. 2) causes a recursive dependency, basically kernel:do_bundle_initramfs -> initramfs:do_image_complete -> initramfs:do_rootfs -> kernel:do_packagedata I think because of do_rootfs[recrdeptask] += "do_packagedata" in image.bbclass: Now I can't figure out why the kernel's do_packagedata ends up in my chain, I am not adding any kernel modules to the initramfs image. Is there a way to break this loop? Or explicitly remove the kernel:do_packagedata from my initramfs recrdeptasks? So that I can end up with a non-empty a kernel-image-bundled-initramfs PACKAGE? More generally, is there a way to achieve what I want? Maybe in a different way? Thanks. Andre' PS: I could probably do a two-staged approach, build the bundled initramfs first, and then manually copy it from DEPLOYDIR during rootfs creation time of the main image. But that seems cumbersome and I was hoping for a neater solution :-) -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
