I have been working with the Intel Atom and Yocto Project - http://www.annabooks.com/Book_OSSATOM.html 1. Make sure you have first downloaded and extracted Poky. I extract Danny as - Yocto 1.3/poky-danny-8.0 2. Download the BSP separately and unpack the contents to a temp folder. There should be a meta-Intel directory. 3. Copy this meta-Intel folder to the Yocto 1.3/poky-danny-8.0 folder. Go ahead and over write the directory that is there. Yes, create a new project and build directory. you need to modify the bblayers.conf file to point to the BSP files: BBFILES ?= "" BBLAYERS ?= " \ /home/user/Yocto1.3/poky-danny-8.0/meta \ /home/user/Yocto1.3/poky-danny-8.0/meta-yocto \ /home/user/Yocto1.3/poky-danny-8.0/meta-intel \ /home/user/Yocto1.3/poky-danny-8.0/meta-intel/meta-cedartrail \ Regards, Sean Liming Owner Annabooks Tel: 714-970-7523 / Cell: 858-774-3176 _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list [email protected] https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
