An updated Cedar Trail BSP for Edison has been released and is available at:

http://www.yoctoproject.org/download/bsp/intel%C2%AE-atom%E2%84%A2-processor-n2000-and-d2000-series-based-platform-cedar-trail-powervr-graphics

The 'Cedar Trail' platform consists of the Cedarview (Intel® Atom™
N2600, N2800 and D2700) processor, plus the Tiger Point (Intel® NM10
Express) Chipset.

This release enables the BSP to use the latest available kernel
patches for Intel's PowerVR graphics driver. The BSP image includes
time limited kernel images for testing purposes.

The images included in the BSP were built from:
meta-intel: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-intel/commit/?h=edison&id=8639a836d388812887ecd28bd4e7c6
poky: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?h=edison&id=0fbd6a161576b2cafa8583adde0ffb15347c884a

Source for the included images is available at:

This is probaby a stupid question, so I apologize in advance:

What is a time limited kernel image?

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

In short: the time limited kernel limits uptime and warns the user via
the system log.

Please see section 1.4 of the bsp-guide (http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/latest/bsp-guide/bsp-guide.html) including the following text: 

" Note
Pre-compiled images are bundled with a time-limited kernel that runs for a predetermined amount of time (10 days) before it forces the system to reboot. This limitation is meant to discourage direct redistribution of the image. You must eventually rebuild the image if you want to remove this restriction."


Thanks
Rahul

This should actually read as optional for compliance with the BSP Guide. I've already asked Scott to work on an explicit list of "required" vs "optional" items to conform with the guide to make this clearer.

The Intel silicon guys do this for their BSPs for a variety of reasons. I wouldn't necessarily expect anyone else to do this.
