Hi Bruce,
I've also tried adding the `kernel-modules` in the IMAGE_INSTALL,
but that doesn't help either, because as I've mentioned this package
is empty.
The individual module packages are indeed populated and adding each
one individually in the IMAGE_INSTALL makes them install in the final
image.
So the problem is that the `kernel-modules` doesn't add all the module
packages in one package and it's empty. Therefore, when it's installed
it installs nothing.
Regards,
Dimitris
