2017-02-19T14:59:51+00:00

dev-manual: Added section on bmap-tool to flash images

2017-01-11T17:23:18+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #10621] bmaptool is integrated into the OpenEmbedded build system but is not documented. I added a new section describing how to flash an image to media using the tool. Also, updated a small section in the Wic part of the manual that used "dd" to flash an example. I added a bmaptool counterpart here and referenced the reader back to the main new section.

2017-01-11T17:23:17+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #7096] Applied a couple review comments to the section to clarify where to set key variables. Also fixed an incorrect variable name used to specify the *.cpio file.

dev-manual: Fixed "recipetool create" example

2017-01-11T17:23:17+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #10763] The final example in the section describing how to create the base recipe using receipetool create was wrong. I updated it to use the -d option in addition to the -o opetion. I also changed the description to match appropriately. (From yocto-docs rev: 8cc6d5e21532eeaac0e6d9ace3e0b58803a9804e) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

dev-manual, ref-manual: Created new section on initramfs

2017-01-11T17:23:17+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #7096] We did not document how to create an initramfs image to be included with a kernel build. Various variables sort of inferred the knowledge. I created a new section in the "Common Tasks" section of the dev-manual that describes how to create an initramfs image. Also, I updated the kernel.bbclass reference section to point back to the new "how-to" section. Finally, I also created a bunch of cross-reference links from various related variables back to the new "how-to" section.

ref-manual, dev-manual: Removed term "wic-partitioned"

2017-01-11T17:23:17+00:00

This term was incorrect and I have replaced it with the term "partitioned." (From yocto-docs rev: 50dd5c6994a2f799fdaf1ccbf7138b0074e981ee) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

dev-manual: Added note about RPM not dealing with post-install

2016-11-23T11:10:35+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #10351] I added a note to the "Post Installation Scripts" section of the "Writing a New Recipe" section to call out the fact that the RPM package manager will not install packages on the target when any RPM post-install script returns a non-zero exit code when the script is run on the target.

ref-manual, dev-manual: Added references to SYSROOT_DIRS

2016-11-23T11:10:35+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #10692] I updated the STAGING_DIR variable description to have a reference to the SYSROOT_DIRS variable as well as the "Sharing Files Between Recipes" section of the dev-manual. I also updated the "Sharing Files Between Recipes" section so that the role of SYSROOT_DIRS is explained and actually used in an example to add another directory.
