configuring the kernel and adding packages

configuring the kernel and adding packages

[Alexander Keller]

Hello, 

 

                I have configured the kernel the way I wanted using:

 

                                bitbake virtual/kernel -c menuconfig

but I cannot find where the configured kernel is located. Do I have to build
the kernel manually that was in the work directory?

 

                Also, I am used to ltib. One of the great fesstures of ltib
is to easily add packages through the ltib menu. Is there something similar
to that feature in yocto? Is there a way for me to pick and choose what
packages to add for my image?

I think you will find .config under:
tmp/work/imx6qsabresd-poky-linux-gnueabi/linux-imx/3.0.35-r37.14/git/

You can take a look on hob

https://www.yoctoproject.org/documentation/hob-manual

But I do prefer to keep my images under files and work manually, so I 
don't use it so much.

BTW you could better configure your kernel in the Yocto way with:

  bitbake -c menuconfig virtual/kernel

or

  bitbake -c menuconfig linux

then

  bitbake -c deploy linux
