When you say you've tried adding OLDEST_KERNEL, where did you set that? Another thing to note - conf/bitbake.conf sets OLDEST_KERNEL_aarch64 = "3.14", and since on Pine64 that override would presumably apply, unless you are also using an override when you set your value I would strongly suspect your value is being overridden. Run bitbake -e | less and then search for OLDEST_KERNEL with / to confirm - you'll be able to see not just the final value but the history of how the value got set. To avoid this you'll likely need to set your OLDEST_KERNEL value with an override - the machine name should work i.e. assuming your MACHINE is "pine64" you would do: OLDEST_KERNEL_pine64 = "3.10" Cheers, Paul -- Paul Eggleton Intel Open Source Technology Centre -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list [email protected] https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
