X-BeenThere: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.12 Precedence: list List-Id: Patches and discussions about the oe-core layer List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 18 Aug 2016 16:41:38 -0000 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII not sure if i asked this once, but i'm still trying to figure it out. i want to add the u-boot-fw-utils recipe to my current build, but u-boot is *not* part of the relevant BSP layer -- u-boot is being configured and built elsewhere, and that's not changing for the foreseeable future. the good news is that those utilities don't need to have any info on the default environment for u-boot -- they need only have access to the environment in flash, and there is a /etc/fw_env.config file that is all set up and ready to go and referring to the correct device and offset in flash. so how do i specify that i want to add that recipe to my build, while saying, "don't worry about the default environment, you don't need it." can that be done? thanks. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
