Hi,
As said, I need a filesystem for ARM.
Thanks Brauch (and also thanks for Anders Darander)
I downloaded the tarball for yokto
project and acted according to the instructions,
However, unless I do not understand something correctly,
there is a config file named conf/local.conf ;
In this file you must select a Machine from one
of with these entries:
#MACHINE ?= "qemuarm"
#MACHINE ?= "qemumips"
#MACHINE ?= "qemuppc"
#MACHINE ?= "qemux86"
#MACHINE ?= "qemux86-64"
#
# There are also the following hardware board target machines included for
# demonstration purposes:
#
#MACHINE ?= "atom-pc"
#MACHINE ?= "beagleboard"
#MACHINE ?= "mpc8315e-rdb"
#MACHINE ?= "routerstationpro"
However, I am not using a beagleboard, I am using some
other ARM based board. And it seems to me that using qemuarm is not a
good choice, as I prefer not to work with qemu emulator,
Does anybody knows anything ?
rgs,
Kevin Wilson
