Still a bit up in the air with this here Robert. I've not been able to work out if there's a primary source for meta-clanton independent of the packaged iot layer, so I grabbed meta-intel-iot-devkit in its entirety from git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-intel-iot-devkit I built one of my own custom mono images based on core-image-sato thinking I could put that on a uSD and it would "just boot" (oh the optimism... :) No joy there so I took a quick look through that Quark BSP guide and it seemed to be talking about booting some odd kind of image format from a file on uSD. I stepped back and had it build the iot-devkit-image which seemed to need be to make a change to an image dependency on python to python-core. That's where I had to leave it as I ran out of time. I was planning on hooking up serial to the Tx/Rx pins to see if anything is happening there, getting something building, then replacing the meta-intel-iot-devkit references in BBLAYERS (aside from meta-clanton) with the daisy layers I'm using on a day to day basis. Will let you know once I get a bit of life out of it!
