Hello,
I want to install rtl8192cufw.bin from rtlwifi from linux-firmware but
if I add linux-firmware to IMAGE_INSTALL_append it will of course
install whole linux-firmware to my rootfs and bloats my rootfs image.
What is the correct way to install rtl8192cufw.bin automatically to my rootfs?

If you have a look at the linux-firmware recipe (meta/recipes-kernel/linux-
firmware/linux-firmware_git.bb) you'll see that it splits out this firmware blob
to a separate package called "linux-firmware-rtl8192cu", so add this to your
IMAGE_INSTALL instead of "linux-firmware" (which will pull in all firmware) and
you should be ready to go.
Cheers,
Paul
