Intel Galileo Yocto Source Code Configuration

user@workstation:~/Galileo/poky$ source oe-init-build-env
You had no conf/local.conf file. This configuration file has therefore been
created for you with some default values. You may wish to edit it to, for
example, select a different MACHINE (target hardware). See conf/local.conf
for more information as common configuration options are commented.

You had no conf/bblayers.conf file. This configuration file has therefore been
created for you with some default values. To add additional metadata layers
into your configuration please add entries to conf/bblayers.conf.

The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about OE including a reference
manual which can be found at:
    http://yoctoproject.org/documentation

For more information about OpenEmbedded see their website:
    http://www.openembedded.org/


### Shell environment set up for builds. ###

You can now run 'bitbake <target>'

Common targets are:
    core-image-minimal
    core-image-sato
    meta-toolchain
    meta-ide-support

You can also run generated qemu images with a command like 'runqemu qemux86'

Others

The images are based on the 'dizzy' branch of poky:
$ git clone --branch dizzy git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky iotdk
$ cd iotdk

Add a number of layers on top:
$ git clone --branch dizzy git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-intel-quark
$ git clone --branch dizzy git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-intel-iot-middleware
$ git clone --branch dizzy git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-intel-galileo
$ git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-intel-iot-devkit
$ git clone --branch dizzy http://github.com/openembedded/meta-openembedded.git meta-oe

Source the oe env vars for OE:
$ source oe-init-build-env

You should be in a newly created build/ subdirectory. Set up your layer configuration from this directory by opening a new file, conf/bblayers.conf. The file's contents should read something like this, note that you need to change the layer paths to be changed.

LCONF_VERSION = "6"
BBPATH = "${TOPDIR}"
BBFILES ?=""
BBLAYERS += " \
${TOPDIR}/../meta \
${TOPDIR}/../meta-yocto \
${TOPDIR}/../meta-yocto-bsp \
${TOPDIR}/../meta-oe/meta-oe \
${TOPDIR}/../meta-oe/meta-filesystems \
${TOPDIR}/../meta-intel-quark \
${TOPDIR}/../meta-intel-galileo \
${TOPDIR}/../meta-intel-iot-middleware \
${TOPDIR}/../meta-intel-iot-devkit"


Set up the distro and your build settings. Place the following in a new file called conf/auto.conf:

DISTRO = "iot-devkit-multilibc"
PACKAGE_CLASSES = "package_ipk"
MACHINE = "quark"

Run the build system:
$ bitbake iot-devkit-prof-dev-image

After this, you should have nearly everything. The next step is to make a bootable uSD card image. We use a tool called 'wic':
$ ../meta-intel-iot-devkit/scripts/wic_monkey create -e iot-devkit-prof-dev-image ../meta-intel-iot-devkit/scripts/lib/image/canned-wks/iot-devkit.wks

Once wic has finished it will print the path to a  .directfile in /var/tmp/wic/build/. Write it with dd to your uSD card (remember to use sync before removing it!) and pop it in your Intel Galileo board.
