Hi Randy

Thank you for your reply.

Doing, "sudo apt install --reinstall coreutils" fixed the problem with 
test not being found. I'm not sure why it was not on the system, but 
that error is fixed.

Unfortunately I've run into another problem when I try and run bitbake, 
the process fails witht he following error:

/ ports/linux/pseudo_wrappers.c:68:16: error: ‘__NR_renameat2’ 
undeclared (first use in this function)/
/
/

I'll take another look at that issue in the morning.


Andrew
