You can find information about this kit by downloading the PDF document from http://edc.intel.com/Link.aspx?id=3878. For information on the Intel® Atom(tm) Processor E660 see http://edc.intel.com/Platforms/Atom-E6xx/. For general information about Board Support Packages, see the Board Support Package (BSP) Developer's Guide at: http://www.yoctoproject.org/sites/default/files/bsp-guide_7.pdf We are releasing two versions of the BSP tarballs. Each tarball contains the meta-crownbay Yocto BSP layer and bootable images. The BSP versions available for the Crown Bay are: - Crown Bay - This tarball is prefixed with the string 'crownbay'. It contains proprietary graphics binaries and requires you to agree to a click-through license before you can download it. It is available from: https://eula-downloads.yoctoproject.org/crownbay/crownbay-laverne-4.0.1 - Crown Bay no EMGD - This tarball is prefixed with the string 'crownbay-noemgd'. It does not contain any proprietary information. You can download the tarball directly. The BSP uses fully open source generic vesa support. As such, the drivers are not optimized to take full advantage of the hardware as compared to the other BSP tarball. It is available from: http://www.yoctoproject.org/downloads/yocto-0.9/machines/crownbay-noemgd-laverne-4.0.1.tar.bz2 For source files for the Crown Bay BSP images see: http://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/downloads/yocto-0.9/sources. Release Notes ------------- The following known issues exist for this BSP. - BUGID# 725 - During a boot operation you are prompted with the question: Found drive at /dev/sda. Do you want to install poky there ? [y/n] Unrelated text might follow this prompt during the install. You can still see the prompt text but you might have to locate it above the unrelated text. The actions [y/n] are still valid and you need to enter your choice. - BUGID# 738 - The icons in the green panel at the top of the screen are missing. Consequently, the functions that are accessible exclusively through that panel, such as switching between open applications and the desktop, do not work. You must close an application to get to the desktop. ------------------ Elizabeth Flanagan Yocto Project Release Engineer
