Kia ora I am Worik Stanton, from Dunedin New Zealand. I am new to Yocto, and to this list, with many decades experience programming computers.
My question is about what are the best resources for learning how to adapt and maintain a Yocto system I am responsible for. I have recently become responsible for a collection of Yocto "builds" (I am unsure how I should describe them) that I must learn how to maintain, adapt, and extend. Adapt and extend to new hardware and to new software that we are writing. The author of the system is available only sporadically and is cleary moving to greener pastures and is unable to offer much help. I have the "Embedded Linux Systems with the Yocto Project" and it is helpful. However the systems I am working with are, I fear, quite idiosyncratic and highly developed. The example of the sort of problem I have faced and solved is I needed "lsblk" in my build. I found that by adding the name of the Debian package to a variable IMAGE_INSTALL "IMAGE_INSTALL += util_linux" essentially, places "lsblk" in the root file system. I have no idea why I used the name of a Debian package! I do not feel ready to pester you folks with queries until I have done more reading and have moved along the learning curve. I am hoping for some meta advice about where I can look for guidance for problems like that. Worik
