Or is someone working on this? At present there is not any interactive menu based configuration but there is work ongoing on a UI called hob which allows you to select packages and construct images of those packages so its a graphical front end to the system. We're also in the process of starting to better markup configuration variables in the metadata so that writing some kind of menu based configuration system would be easier in the future. We're certainly open to any help in those areas too! Cheers, Richard ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

Not specifically. "bitbake -u hob" should let you see where things are at. Please keep in mind that its under active development at the moment and can be considered "alpha" quality but feedback is welcome.

I tried playing with it, but a little confused on exactly what its trying to accomplish and what the 'cfg' that is saved off ends up being. If you have questions please ask them. The saved file should be a recipe for building a custom image. The purpose of the tool is to help you put together a custom image and build it.

Try this: bitbake -u hob -> Python traceback change PARALLEL_MAKE from 'j8' to 'j 8' bitbake -u hob click save Open up recipe in editor -> 'require None.bb' So it looks like creating an image from scratch doesn't work. regards, Koen ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread
