I have only MACHINE_FEATURES += "efi" KERNEL_FEATURES_append_cedartrail += "cfg/efi-ext.scc".
I am not having IMAGE_FSTYPES += "live".

I've discussed in IRC with Nitin and he thinks this may be related to the automake update and is looking into it. -- Darren Hart Intel Open Source Technology Center Yocto Project - Linux Kernel _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
