> Nothing really. The issue is conflicting SYSLINUX_LABELS for the boot
options. For the live image the labels are boot and install while there is
only boot for the vmdk image. Prior to 2.0 Jethro you could specify both,
live and vmdk, in IMAGE_FSTYPES. It built both but the live image was
missing the install boot option (it had two boot options instead). This
function in syslinux.bbclass now flags the issue:
# Some of the vars for vm and live image are conflicted, this function
# is used for fixing the problem.
def syslinux_set_vars(d, suffix):
vars = ['SYSLINUX_ROOT', 'SYSLINUX_CFG', 'LABELS', 'INITRD']
for var in vars:
var_with_suffix = var + '_' + suffix
if d.getVar(var, True):
bb.warn('Found potential conflicted var %s, please use %s rather
than %s' % \
(var, var_with_suffix, var))
elif d.getVar(var_with_suffix, True):
d.setVar(var, d.getVar(var_with_suffix, True))
Technically, in my opinion, you should be able to build both at the same
time. You may want to disable the sanity checker.
Cheers,
Rudi
