Cant Add OpenSSH Server to Yocto morty BSP for Galileo 2

[idata]

Dear All,

Working with:

- Galileo 2

- Yocto morty

Have added the following lines to my local.conf:

MACHINE = "intel-quark"

IMAGE_INSTALL_append "ntp ntimed tcpdump traceroute arptables openssh"

Examining notes at:

https://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/branch/morty/layer/openembedded-core/ https://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/branch/morty/layer/openembedded-core/

We see that openssh is included in this layer, and the notes specifically state that the sshd server is included. However, when added as detailed above, I get the ssh client, but not the server.

Is this a bug?

RESOLUTION

OK - doing more digging:

When starting bitbake, I was generating the image "core-image-sato" as per the example from the README file provided in meta-intel.

Per the Yocto Mega Manual, section 5.2.2, the correct image should be "core-image-full-cmdline", since:

- Galileo does not have video output, and is therefore a Command Line Interface (CLI) bound device via serial/sshd/telnet.

- the image "core-image-full-cmdline" includes the sshd daemon by default.

Therefore, using the correct image resolves the problem without modifications.

After generating the new image, the sshd binary is found at: /usr/sbin/sshd

***

THANK YOU for looking into this issue. A document detailing my trials and experiences will be posted here in the forums soon.

FOLLOWUP: Could someone please update the meta-intel/README file and replace the core-image-sato reference with core-image-full-cmdline ?
