I am new (2 days) to the Yocto Project. Am trying to do a Linux build for the Freescale IMX53 QSB. Am running into trouble and cannot find any assistance on-line. Any help would be appreciated.

Build log as follows:

pauld@ubuntu:~/yocto/imx53qsb/poky-denzil-7.0/build$ bitbake core-image-minimal

WARNING: Host distribution "Ubuntu 12.04 LTS" has not been validated with this version of the build system; you may possibly experience unexpected failures. It is recommended that you use a tested distribution.
