I agree with you. Let's not touch kickstart code.

Let's put bootloader config at the same location where .wks is then.
It's also not the best solution though as it can be inconvenient for the
user, but it's better than pointing to the file which might not exist.

If the configuration is simple I agree with you; however if the

What bothers me here is that reference to the external entity (config file in

I see your point now. I'll change the code to have the configuration in 
the wks file.





It would be also nice to have this code covered by oe-selftest.

Yes, I plan do  create a test and update the documentation once it
is integrated in master.


I'd prefer to have tests in the same patchset with the code. It would

I'll work on that and send the series again.

I see your point now. I'll change the code to have the configuration 
in the wks file.


I was checking in the kickstart code and the parser is a state machine 
that reads line by line, so a multi line bootloader config file is not 
currently and option. I was about to modify the code when I saw the 
comment for this class:


"Methods that don't need to do anything may just pass.  However, 
_stateMachine should never be overridden."


So, in order to have the config file inside the wks file we would need 
to hack in kickstart code; I would like to avoid that. What do you think?
