Prepare the Environment * Make sure the system is up to date: <pre> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgade </pre> * Install a few prerequisite packages: <pre> sudo apt-get install apt-get install gawk wget git bitbake diffstat unzip texinfo gcc-multilib build-essential chrpath socat libsdl1.2-dev xterm </pre> h2. Prepare the Source Code * Create a directory for the source code: <pre> mkdir ~/git && cd ~/git </pre> * Get the latest Yocto version: <pre> git clone -b dizzy git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky.git cd poky </pre> h3. Configure Intel BSP * Get the latest Intel Board Support Packages into the Yocto directory: <pre> git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-intel -b dizzy </pre> * Source the @oe-init-build-env@ script: <pre> source oe-init-build-env </pre> * Edit @build/conf/local.conf@ <pre> nano build/conf/local.conf </pre> #* And modify the config to match the *genericx86* machine: <pre> MACHINE ?= "genericx86" </pre> * Add the meta-intel layer to the bblayers.conf file: <pre> nano build/conf/bblayers.conf </pre> #* And modify the BBLAYERS definition: <pre> BBLAYERS ?= " \ /home/user/git/poky/meta \ /home/user/git/poky/meta-yocto \ /home/user/git/poky/meta-yocto-bsp \ /home/user/git/poky/meta-intel \ " </pre> h2.
