MinnowBoard MAX Instructions

#Pre-requisites

• Familiarity with yocto (point to a doc/tutorial here)
• This guide uses ~/yocto as the path to poky and other layers. If you put them anywhere else, adjust the instructions accordingly
• Create a directory to place yocto subdirs, e.g. mkdir ~/yocto
• cd ~/yocto
• Get poky (Yocto's reference distro): git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
• Get the Soletta layer: git clone git://github.com/solettaproject/meta-soletta.git
• Get Openembedded layer: git clone git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded

#Compiling Soletta

##Load the environment:

cd ~/yocto/poky
source oe-init-build-env

##Add the layers to bblayers:

cd ~/yocto/poky/build
echo 'BBLAYERS += "~/yocto/meta-oe"' >> conf/bblayers.conf
echo 'BBLAYERS += "~/yocto/meta-soletta"' >> conf/bblayers.conf

##For building without x11:

echo 'DISTRO_FEATURES_remove = "x11"' >> conf/local.conf

##For building with Systemd (Some examples uses systemd services. This is recommended):

echo 'DISTRO_FEATURES_append = " systemd"' >> conf/local.conf
echo 'DISTRO_FEATURES_BACKFILL_CONSIDERED = "sysvinit"' >> conf/local.conf
echo 'VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_init_manager = "systemd"' >> conf/local.conf
echo 'VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_initscripts = "initscripts"' >> conf/local.conf
echo 'VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_keymaps ?= "keymaps"' >> conf/local.conf
echo 'VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_dev_manager ?= "udev"' >> conf/local.conf

##If you want to access MinnowBoard via SSH, append the following:

echo 'EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES = "ssh-server-openssh"' >> conf/local.conf

##If you want an image with no password on root user by default, do:

echo 'EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES += " debug-tweaks" >> conf/local.conf

##Now after configuring everything you can run:

bitbake soletta-image

If you want to put it on a sd card or pendrive you should go to the topic "Create bootable USB/SDCard". bitbake
