I've searched the vast net for an answer to this but i've found NOTHING! that works for me. All i want to do is a simple task, i want to create a new directory called "test" located in "/". My recipe is below
DESCRIPTION = "Hello world" S = "${WORKDIR}" SRC_URI="file://bye.sh" LICENSE = "CLOSED" LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://${S}/README;md5=e584df0feead52ed7de9b60172adc0cf " #INHIBIT_DEFAULT_DEPS = "1" do_install() { install -d /test/ install -m 0777 bye.sh /test/ } I can't seem to to do this, the error message is below [cid:927d4972-8462-4e14-a645-1e674bf9e641] I understand that there is a permissions issue with making a directory in "/" but i have no idea how to to get past this. I feel it would be very useful to newbies (like me) if there was a tutorial which gave solutions to simple tasks like this. The reference manual breezes over most things and i understand that it can't cover everything but this does cause a massive barrier to entry when learning Yocto. Apologies if i'm sounding a bit harsh but i've been self teaching Yocto for 3 weeks in my spare time and still don't have any fruits to show for my labour :'(. Kind Regards, Bahjat (Very stressed engineer)
