Problem building the Intel Aero image with Yocto Krogoth..

[GLai4]

When we were trying to build the Intel Aero with Yocto Krogoth branch, following the instructions here:

https://github.com/intel-aero/meta-intel-aero/wiki/Quickstart-Guide Quickstart Guide · intel-aero/meta-intel-aero Wiki · GitHub

We got the "No recipes available" error for the following:

/poky/meta-intel/common/receipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto-tiny_4.8.bbappend

/poky/meta-intel/common/receipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto_4.8.bbappend

Looking into /poky/meta/recipes-kernel/linux, we can only find the following recipes:

linux-yocto_4.1.bb

linux-yocto_4.4.bb

linux-yocto-tiny_4.1.bb

linux-yocto-tiny_4.4.bb

This is confirmed by looking at the tree on git.yoctoproject.org:

http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/recipes-kernel/linux?h=krogoth poky - Poky Build Tool and Metadata

That is, there is no recipes for version 4.8.

On the other hand, looking under the master branch (as of 2016-09-15), the recipes for 4.8 are there:

http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/recipes-kernel/linux poky - Poky Build Tool and Metadata

This suggests the Intel Aero image requires the master brand of yocto rather than the Krogoth branch to build. Please advise/confirm if that is correct. If so, please update the Quick Start Guide page above to reflect this change.

Thanks,

I think I might have found where the issue is: in the Quick Start Guide page, the git clone command for getting the meta-intel layer was missing the -b krogoth flag. So I got the master branch of that layer (instead of the Krogoth branch), which does not match with the rest of the layers.

After fixing that, I am able to start the build (it is building as I type).

Please update the Quick Start Guide page to correct this typo.

Thanks,
