What was the error you = got?  I'll bet it was for 'iw' which
is a package = from meta-oe, so you'll need to add that layer

Once you've added the meta-oe layer, you should be able to
put this line in your local.conf:
CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL +=3D " iw wpa-supplicant=94

Okay, what I don=92t get is the = fact that without any additional layers, bitbake core-image-sato builds = all the WiFi features I need.  bitbake core-image-minimal does not. =  So I=92m
thinking that there is some = CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL statement that can just add what is needed = without extra layers.

I guess it just = doesn=92t make sense to me right now.

Try using
CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL +=3D " = packagegroup-base-wifi"
which will bring in = 'wireless-tools' and 'wpa-supplicant'.

I = prefer 'iw' to 'wireless-tools' as it is newer and [IMO]

Thanks, I found that I can clean build with just = the wpa-supplicant added and I=92m hoping that will bring in the wifi = drivers.  If it does, all I want to do is edit the /etc/interfaces = file with the Static IP of the wlan0, the static IP of the eth0 and the = wpa-xxx for the WKPA2_PSK information.  

Do I really need the tools?  I don=92t need = CLI commands to change any network parameters later.

What was the error you = got?  I'll bet it was for 'iw' which
is a package = from meta-oe, so you'll need to add that layer

Once you've added the meta-oe layer, you should be able to
put this line in your local.conf:
CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL +=3D " iw wpa-supplicant=94

Okay, what I don=92t get is the = fact that without any additional layers, bitbake core-image-sato builds = all the WiFi features I need.  bitbake core-image-minimal does not. =  So I=92m
thinking that there is some = CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL statement that can just add what is needed = without extra layers.

I guess it just = doesn=92t make sense to me right now.

Try using
CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL +=3D " = packagegroup-base-wifi"
which will bring in = 'wireless-tools' and 'wpa-supplicant'.

I = prefer 'iw' to 'wireless-tools' as it is newer and [IMO]
simpler to use.

Thanks, I found that I can clean build with just = the wpa-supplicant added and I=92m hoping that will bring in the wifi = drivers.  If it does, all I want to do is edit the /etc/interfaces = file with the Static IP of the wlan0, the static IP of the eth0 and the = wpa-xxx for the WKPA2_PSK information.  

Do I really need the tools?  I don=92t need = CLI commands to change any network parameters later.

What was the error you = got?  I'll bet it was for 'iw' which
is a package = from meta-oe, so you'll need to add that layer

Once you've added the meta-oe layer, you should be able to
put this line in your local.conf:

Okay, what I don=92t get is the = fact that without any additional layers, bitbake core-image-sato builds = all the WiFi features I need.  bitbake core-image-minimal does not. =  So I=92m

I guess it just = doesn=92t make sense to me right now.

Try using
CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL +=3D " = packagegroup-base-wifi"
which will bring in = 'wireless-tools' and 'wpa-supplicant'.

I = prefer 'iw' to 'wireless-tools' as it is newer and [IMO]
simpler to use.

Thanks, I found that I can clean = build with just the wpa-supplicant added and I=92m hoping that will = bring in the wifi drivers.  If it does, all I want to do is edit = the /etc/interfaces file with the Static IP of the wlan0, the static IP = of the eth0 and the wpa-xxx for the WKPA2_PSK information. =  

Do I really need the tools?  I don=92t need CLI = commands to change any network parameters later.

I tried just a= dding DISTRO_FEATURES +=3D "wifi" to the local.conf and bitbaking core-imag= e-base=2C but I got a lot of errors:

NOTE: Resolving any missing tas= k queue dependencies
ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES 'glibc'

Missing or unbuildable dependency chain was: ['core-image-base'=2C 'gl= ibc']

So I got it working with core-image-minimal as I mentioned ear= lier just before your reply.

>=3B >=3B=
>=3B >=3B Try using

Looks like you also need = to add ipv4 to the DISTRO_FEATURES:

 <= /p>

DISTRO_FEATURES +=3D = "ipv4 wifi"

 <= /p>

Might be worth trying.

I tried just adding DISTRO_FEATURES +=3D "wifi" to the local.= conf and bitbaking core-image-base, but I got a lot of errors:

NOTE: Resolving any missing task queue dependencies
ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES 'glibc'
ERROR: glibc was skipped: missing required distro feature 'ipv4' (not in DI= STRO_FEATURES)
ERROR: Required build target 'core-image-base' has no buildable providers.<= br> Missing or unbuildable dependency chain was: ['core-image-base', 'glibc']
So I got it working with core-image-minimal as I mentioned earlier just bef= ore your reply.

Looks= like you also need to add ipv4 to the DISTRO_FEATURES:

=0A=

 = =3B

=0A=

DISTR= O_FEATURES +=3D "ipv4 wifi"

=0A=

 = =3B

=0A=

Might= be worth trying.

I'll test with it=2C but why core-image-base vs. core-image-minima= l?

=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.

I must have to add something to add the drivers and firmware to the kernel. Not sure what though. That's a whole separate issue. To get the drivers you typically need to add kernel-modules and linux-firmware (as others have stated). However, if you want a truly minimal system, those are poor choices as they bring in TONS of packages. You probably want to just include the kernel-module-XXX and linux-firmware-XXX that are actually needed by your hardware. >> On Jan 26, 2015, at 11:09 AM, James Abernathy > wrote: >> >>> >>> On Jan 26, 2015, at 10:52 AM, Gary Thomas > wrote: >>> >>> On 2015-01-26 08:26, James Abernathy wrote: >>>> >>>>> On Jan 26, 2015, at 8:49 AM, Gary Thomas > wrote: >>>>> >>>>> On 2015-01-26 06:29, James Abernathy wrote: >>>>>> >>>>>>> On Jan 23, 2015, at 12:37 PM, Gary Thomas > wrote: >>>>>>> >>>>>>> On 2015-01-23 10:24, Jim Abernathy wrote: >>>>>>>> I'm starting a project mostly for self-education.

core-image-base installs = packagegroup-base-extended, whereas core-image-minimal doesn’t. packa= gegroup-base-extended adds things like kernel modules and other package groups that you’ll want for a more full-featured system.

Looks like you also need = to add ipv4 to the DISTRO_FEATURES:

 

DISTRO_FEATURES +=3D = "ipv4 wifi"

 

Might be worth trying.=

I tried just adding DISTRO_FEATURES +=3D "wifi" to the local.= conf and bitbaking core-image-base, but I got a lot of errors:

NOTE: Resolving any missing task queue dependencies
ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES 'glibc'
ERROR: glibc was skipped: missing required distro feature 'ipv4' (not in DI= STRO_FEATURES)
ERROR: Required build target 'core-image-base' has no buildable providers.<= br> Missing or unbuildable dependency chain was: ['core-image-base', 'glibc']
So I got it working with core-image-minimal as I mentioned earlier just bef= ore your reply.

=0A= >=3B >=3B Once you've added the meta-oe layer=2C you should be able to = put this

Missing or unbuildable dependency chain was: You're getting this error because you're actually replacing the value with "wifi" not adding it, because the default value is actually set *after* local.conf is parsed using ?=, so having set a value in local.conf, it's already set and thus ?= has no effect. Then we get to parsing the glibc recipe and that immediately fails because it states that all features in DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC are required, and you've removed those. (As a side note I really dislike how this latter bit has been implemented, but at least it breaks early rather than what used to happen where it would get up to compiling glibc and then fail). The correct way to add to DISTRO_FEATURES in local.conf would be to use DISTRO_FEATURES_append = " ..." (and don't forget the leading space in the value). However, that said, I'd guess that if your configuration is the default poky or reasonably close to it, DISTRO_FEATURES already contains "wifi", so there shouldn't even be a need to add it; particularly as you've already suggested wifi was working with core-image-sato.

It should never have been = core-image-minimal. I just view that as not core-image-sato, meaning no = gui. If you take standard dizzy and change machine to nuc, then bitbake = core-image-base, you get all the wifi, wpa-supplicant that you need. So the trivial answer was that core-image-base is the console, CLI = version I needed to start with all along. Thanks for all the help.
