Hi Ting,

I'm having a problem forcing a compile after allowing the kernel to 
finish baking all the way.

The problem that I see is that

$ bitbake virtual/kernel -c compile -f

will fail due to the sysroot not being clean (e.g., having a .config 
file under usr/src/kernel

It seems that do_populate_sysroot is being called when I initially bake 
the kernel ($ bitbake virtual/kernel), and this task copies the .config 
file into the sysroot.

Below is a log of the error I see when I try forcing a compile (note the 
prepare3 error, which alerted me to the problem of having a .config file 
present.

If I manually rm .config and include/config in my sysroot, I can then 
force a recompile.

Thanks

Bob

I sent two patches for OE-Core which should address this issue. One
for base.bbclass and another for module.bbclass. Take a look there
please.
