hi to everybody,
I have another nice problem with OE.
Finally I managed to compile a personalized distro, with a small X11, a wm, Java support and few other programs but today I encountered a new problem. I want to install my personal kernel (2.6.23.9, patched to support SquashFS) and I followed these steps: 1. I created a file named <myname>_<version>.bb into org.openembedded.dev/packages/linux 2. I created a directory <myname> with all files I need (kernel sources, patches and .config) 3. I tried a bitbake -b <myname> -c compile and a bitbake <myname> and all complete successfully The problem is that the compilation of the full distro ignores the variable PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "<myname>" (and PREFERRED_VERSION_myname = "xyz"); bitbake tells me that "several provider are available for virtual/kernel" (that I never set up) and suggests me to set a PREFERRED_PROVIDER. I've inserted PREFERRED_PROVIDER in several places but without success:
1. into local.conf
2. into angstrom2007.1.conf
3. into x86.conf instead of PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux"
4. into mymachine.conf
Any suggestion? I know that I can work without include my personal kernel but if it works I can fully authomate the whole process. Thanks in advance Marco p.s. the file named <myname>_<version>.bb contains also a specification about what machine can use it (<mymachine> of course)
