What version Yocto are you using? I ask because you suggest I check the README file for the cedartrail BSP, but I've been unable to FIND a cedartrail BSP in anything newer than Denzil, and that only by searching the git trees. genericX86 is said to cover cedartrail, but it does seem, well, generic, with nothing particularly specific to cedartrail, and much more than what I'm used to in a Yocto BSP. At any rate, I'll try what you suggest in terms of the kernel command line. Thanks again, John
