Hello I have got an application where I need to be able to create an ext4 image file and copy files into, initially it'll be a kernel image.
I can do this manually using the following steps: * Create an empty image file with more than enough space to store your files. - truncate -s 1G my.img * Format it - mkfs.ext4 my.img * Mount it as a loop device - mount -oloop my.img /mnt * Copy the files into the mounted filesystem. - cp -a directory/. /mnt/. Is it possible to create an ext4 image inside a bitbake recipe and copy my own files to it in a fashion similar to the steps above? If it is could someone please point me to some instuction for how to do it? Thank in advance Andrew
