I build images which are not based on any of the core-XXX images listed by HOB. How can I get them into the drop-down base list? Is there a way I can filter out some of the base images? tasks? I ask these questions because in particular, I use a lot of the recipes in meta and meta-yocto, but none of the images or tasks (because they don't really address my needs, don't take offense, I just want more control than they offer) -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Gary Thomas | Consulting for the MLB Associates | Embedded world ------------------------------------------------------------
