Hi Robert,
(we met at OLS last summer, I came and chatted with you briefly after
your presentation)

My doodle layer can be found here:
https://github.com/twoerner/meta-trevor
My conf/bblayers.conf adds this and meta-openembedded/meta-oe.
My conf/local.conf currently looks like:
BB_NUMBER_THREADS = "4"
PARALLEL_MAKE = "-j 4"
MACHINE = "qemux86"
DL_DIR = "/home/trevor/devel/Downloads"
DISTRO = "poky"
PACKAGE_CLASSES = "package_ipk"
EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES = "debug-tweaks ssh-server-openssh"
USER_CLASSES = "buildstats image-mklibs image-prelink"
PATCHRESOLVE = "noop"
#
# Disk Space Monitoring during the build
#
# Monitor the disk space during the build. If there is less that
1GB of space or less
# than 100K inodes in any key build location (TMPDIR, DL_DIR,
SSTATE_DIR), gracefully
# shutdown the build. If there is less that 100MB or 1K inodes,
perform a hard abort
# of the build. The reason for this is that running completely out
of space can corrupt
# files and damages the build in ways which may not be easily recoverable.
BB_DISKMON_DIRS = "\
STOPTASKS,${TMPDIR},1G,100K \
STOPTASKS,${DL_DIR},1G,100K \
STOPTASKS,${SSTATE_DIR},1G,100K \
ABORT,${TMPDIR},100M,1K \
ABORT,${DL_DIR},100M,1K \
ABORT,${SSTATE_DIR},100M,1K"
CONF_VERSION = "1"
BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY = "yes"
IMAGE_FSTYPES = "vmdk"
IMAGE_ROOTFS_SIZE = "500000"
You can then either "bitbake bboverride" or "bitbake core-image-minimal".
To easily boot the resulting VMDK with qemu, you'll have to patch your
poky/scripts/runqemu and poky/scripts/runqemu-internal with my patch
here (unless by the time you read this, it has already been included):
https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2012-December/013279.html
and then run:
$ runqemu tmp/deploy/images/<image>.vmdk
Currently I can't think of any nice/easy way to _flexibly_ specify the
eth0 IP address of the vmdk image, but the runqemu script does setup
your local tap interface for 192.168.7.1/24 as expected. You can then
manually configure eth0 once the VM boots and/or setup
'/etc/network/interfaces'.
