So adding that package to your image should do the trick.
To understand what's happening it's worth also reading the SUMMARY for core-image-minimal: SUMMARY = "A small image just capable of allowing a device to boot" and comparing to core-image-base: SUMMARY = "A console-only image that fully supports the target device hardware" ie the fact that core-image-minimal doesn't contain any kernel modules is a feature, not a bug. -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list [email protected] https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
