I'm starting a project mostly for self-education. I have already done the
project using Ubuntu Server 14.04 using a Intel NUC and a Pandaboard as
targets. Now I want to see how
easy it is to move it to Yocto.
Starting with the NUC, I can boot Dizzy 1.7.1 core-image-minimal and
core-image-sato, both built with bitbake and not the prebuilt images. However,
core-image-minimal doesn't have
WiFi and core-image-sato does, but I don't need all the GUI stuff. It's a
headless application.
So what is recommended; eliminating the GUI from sato or adding wifi and
wpa-supplicant, etc to minimal?? Also any pointers to how to do the
adding/subtracting would be most helpful.
Once this is working all I have to do is put apache-tomcat, and openjdk-7-jre,
then my application.
We use just iw & wpa-supplicant and set up the configuration
files manually (e.g. the wpa-supplicant configurations).
Could you help with a little more details. What I envision is adding an append
statement of some kind to local.conf to load in the wireless related files to
core-image-minimal, same with openjdk-7-jre and tomcat7, but my first efforts
have generated some unintelligible error for me. So that’s why I’m looking for
direction on where to start with this.
What was the error you got? I'll bet it was for 'iw' which
is a package from meta-oe, so you'll need to add that layer
Once you've added the meta-oe layer, you should be able to
put this line in your local.conf:
CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL += " iw wpa-supplicant"
