=0A= >=3B >=3B I'm not an expert here=2C but I think that adding kernel-modu= les and linux-firmware to your extra_install should give you what you need.=

=0A= >=3B >=3B I'm starting a project mostly for self-education. I have alre= ady done
=0A= >=3B >=3B the project using Ubuntu Server 14.04 using a Intel NUC and a= Pandaboard as targets. Now I want to see how easy it is to move it to Yoct= o.
=0A= >=3B >=3B
=0A= >=3B >=3B Starting with the NUC=2C I can boot Dizzy 1.7.1 core-image-mi= nimal and
=0A= >=3B >=3B core-image-sato=2C both built with bitbake and not the prebui= lt images. However=2C core-image-minimal doesn't have WiFi and core-image-s= ato does=2C but I don't need all the GUI stuff. It's a headless application= .
=0A= >=3B >=3B
=0A= >=3B >=3B So what is recommended=3B eliminating the GUI from sato or ad= ding wifi
=0A= >=3B >=3B and wpa-supplicant=2C etc to minimal?? Also any pointers to h= ow to do the adding/subtracting would be most helpful.
=0A= >=3B >=3B
=0A= >=3B >=3B Once this is working all I have to do is put apache-tomcat=2C= and openjdk-7-jre=2C then my application.
=0A= >=3B >=3B
=0A= >=3B >=3B We use just iw &=3B wpa-supplicant and set up the configur= ation files
=0A= >=3B >=3B manually (e.g. the wpa-supplicant configurations).
=0A= >=3B >=3B
=0A= >=3B >=3B Could you help with a little more details. What I envision is= adding
=0A= >=3B >=3B an append statement of some kind to local.conf to load in the= wireless related files to core-image-minimal=2C same with openjdk-7-jre an= d tomcat7=2C but my first efforts have generated some unintelligible error = for me. So that's why I'm looking for direction=0A= on where to start with this.
=0A= >=3B >=3B
=0A= >=3B >=3B What was the error you got? I'll bet it was for 'iw' which is= a
=0A= >=3B >=3B package from meta-oe=2C so you'll need to add that layer
= =0A= >=3B >=3B
=0A= >=3B >=3B Once you've added the meta-oe layer=2C you should be able to = put this
=0A= >=3B >=3B line in your local.conf:
=0A= >=3B >=3B CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL +=3D " iw wpa-supplicant"
=0A= >=3B >=3B Okay=2C what I don't get is the fact that without any additio= nal layers=2C
=0A= >=3B >=3B bitbake core-image-sato builds all the WiFi features I need. = bitbake core-image-minimal does not. So I'm thinking that there is some COR= E_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL statement that can just add what is needed without ex= tra layers.
=0A= >=3B >=3B
=0A= >=3B >=3B I guess it just doesn't make sense to me right now.
=0A= >=3B >=3B
=0A= >=3B >=3B Try using
=0A= >=3B >=3B CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL +=3D " packagegroup-base-wifi"
= =0A= >=3B >=3B which will bring in 'wireless-tools' and 'wpa-supplicant'.=0A= >=3B >=3B
=0A= >=3B >=3B I prefer 'iw' to 'wireless-tools' as it is newer and [IMO] si= mpler to
=0A= >=3B >=3B use.
=0A= >=3B >=3B Thanks=2C I found that I can clean build with just the wpa-su= pplicant added and I'm hoping that will bring in the wifi drivers. If it do= es=2C all I want to do is edit the /etc/interfaces file with the Static IP = of the wlan0=2C the static IP of the eth0 and the=0A= wpa-xxx for the WKPA2_PSK information.
=0A= >=3B >=3B
=0A= >=3B >=3B Do I really need the tools? I don't need CLI commands to chan= ge any network parameters later.
