From a10af679ec0cc497c0ddeb672a16d3200080720e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Darren Hart Date: Tue, 3 Jan 2012 08:18:35 -0800 Subject: distro: Add poky-tiny distro definition Poky-tiny is intended for building very small OS images. The distro definition sets the providers for the kernel and the runtime services. It also reduces the eglibc component list and other DISTRO_FEATURE elements.
