Thanks for clarifying this, Darren. I think right now we need to design for what the current emulator can do. When things change, we should remember to update Hob. Belen On 15/06/2012 15:31, Darren Hart dvh...@linux.intel.com wrote: On 06/15/2012 06:04 AM, Barros Pena, Belen wrote: Sorry,

It definitely helps: thanks! From what you say the following selections impact the image types: machine, base image and distro. I need to give this a bit of thought. I might be back with even more questions (I hope that's ok). Have a great weekend. Belen On 15/06/2012 17:16, Darren Hart

Hi Belen, I only know there have two variables we get from the bitbake to charge which image is runnable, now. RUNNABLE_IMAGE_TYPES = ext3, ext2, RUNNABLE_MACHINE_PATTERNS = qemu. Thanks! -- Liming -Original Message- From: Barros Pena, Belen Sent: Thursday, June 14, 2012 11:09 PM To:
