Apparently, your first email was held for moderation - please subscribe to the

Your problem is that you are trying to build a raher complete image 
(core-image-base), which pulls lots of dependencies and some of them are from 
additional layers, such as meta-openembedded. For example, here's the reason 
for fbset from libgles-omap3 recipe:

Both fbset and devmem2 are available from meta-openembedded.

Not sure what was the problem with netbase, as it's quite self contained. Are 
you sure you are using matching branches?

Either way, you may be better off composing your own image recipe, if you 
don't want to enable additional layers.
