No rootfs.ext3 in /tmp/deploy/images/<board>

[husnain_kazmi]

Hi,

I built the Yocto image using Yocto Training - HOME 

It states that I should have a rootfs.ext3 in /tmp/deploy/images/<board>folder. However, I don't have any such thing. The contents of this folder are:

My question is: If I want to manually transfer all the stuff to the SD card, where will I find the rootfs? Thanks

Hello,

Which BSP are you using? The BSP Release or the Community BSP?

Most newer BSPs or the newer branches use .ext4 which you should be able to use without problems to manually load the rootfs to your SD card.

In case it’s not being generated you can add this fs type on the IMAGE_FSTYPES variable, which can be setup on the conf/local.conf file inside your build directory.

IMAGE_FSTYPES = "ext3 tar.bz2"

I hope this helps!

Hi gusarambula‌,

Thanks a lot for the reply. I added the fs type to the variable and it generated the rootfs with ext and tar.bz estensions. 

I am using the FSL Community BSP 

Can you please also help me out here: https://community.nxp.com/thread/493259 ?

Thanks in advance.
