21 Welcome!
22 This short document steps you through the process for a typical
23 image build using the Yocto Project.
24 The build uses Poky, which is the reference embedded OS that is
25 completely specified.
26 </p><div class="note" title="Note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><h3 class="title">Note</h3>
27 The examples in this paper assume you are using a native Linux
28 system running a recent Ubuntu Linux distribution.
29 If the machine you want to use
30 Yocto Project on to build an image is not a native Linux
31 system, you can still perform these steps by using CROss
32 PlatformS (CROPS) and setting up a Poky container.
33 See the
34 <a class="ulink" href="http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.5/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#setting-up-to-use-crops" target="_top">Setting Up to Use CROss PlatformS (CROPS)</a>"

36 information.

48 Fedora, openSUSE, CentOS, Debian, or Ubuntu). For a list of
49 Linux distributions that support the Yocto Project, see the
50 "<a class="ulink" href="http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.5/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#detailed-supported-distros" target="_top">Supported Linux Distributions</a>"

60 If your build host does not meet any of these three listed
61 version requirements, you can take steps to prepare the
62 system so that you can still use the Yocto Project.
63 See the
64 "<a class="ulink" href="http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.5/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#required-git-tar-and-python-versions" target="_top">Required Git, tar, and Python Versions</a>"

68 You must install essential host packages on your
69 development host.
70 The following command installs the host packages based on an
71 Ubuntu distribution:

84 Once you complete the setup instructions for your machine,
85 you need to get a copy of the Poky repository on your build

87 Use the following commands to clone the Poky
88 repository and then checkout the yocto-2.5 release:

111 Use the following steps to build your image.
112 The OpenEmbedded build system creates an entire Linux
113 distribution, including the toolchain, from source.

115 If you are working behind a firewall and your build
116 host is not set up for proxies, you could encounter
117 problems with the build process when fetching source
118 code (e.g. fetcher failures or Git failures).
119 </p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
120 If you do not know your proxy settings, consult your
121 local network infrastructure resources and get that
122 information.
123 A good starting point could also be to check your
124 web browser settings.
