No, not strictly necessary, but assuming you're using these instructions to create a new BSP, definitely desirable. > > * section A.5.2.1: as we've noted, that first command can be tossed. > in addition, should one remove the "crownbay" directory from that > location? since "crownbay" content is being removed from other > locations, it would be nice to be consistent. > > * section A.5.2.2: delete first command > I think that's right. > * section A.5.2.4: the "SRCREV_meta" values listed in the appendix > don't match what's in the actual file. so what are the correct > values? > Well, this example seems to assume you want to base it on the atom-pc branch, so I guess we should use the value for that branch in meta-yocto (meta-yocto/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto_3.0.bbappend). The meta branch SRCREV should be inherited from the main recipe (meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto_3.0.bb) which looks like it matches the current value and doesn't need to be changed. Or at least that's what I'm building now. I'll post the full transcript assuming I get a good build out of it... Tom > ... back to work ... > > rday >
