been fighting with this for a couple of hours, so i'll start with the short version -- here's the current explanation for "Changing the Configuration" of your kernel:
http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/latest/kernel-dev/kernel-dev.html#changing-the-configuration the salient bit: "If you have a complete Linux kernel .config file you want to use, copy it to a directory named files, which must be in your layer's recipes-kernel/linux directory, and name the file "defconfig"." first, that clearly suggests that file://defconfig is to be used *only* when you have a complete .config file you want to use, which also implies that if you use that, you should not be picking up any other snippets. that's how i read that -- the use of "file://defconfig" means that that is *exactly* the final form of my eventual .config file. if that's not true, then that wording needs to change. also, i've been trying to do just that for a couple hours now, and i am definitely *not* getting that as my final .config file used for the kernel configuration. so what should be happening here? thanks. rday p.s. as i have some spare time between contracts at the moment, i am going to be going over some of the yocto docs in excruciating detail. somewhere, scott rifenbark is now thinking, "oh, crap, ..." -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
