Integration of OSTree in i.MX8DXL

hara — Tue, 05 Sep 2023 12:09:35 GMT

Hello Team,

I've been working on integrating OSTree and its functionalities into i.MX8DXL (Yocto 4.0). Here's what I've done so far:

Added the meta-updater layer to my Yocto source.

Made the following changes in conf/local.conf
require conf/distro/sota.conf.inc
INHERIT += " sota"
Executed "bitbake core-image-minimal", which successfully generated rootfs.tar and ostree.rootfs.tar.bz2.

Here's where I'm facing an issue. After renaming ostree.rootfs.tar.bz2 to roots.tar.bz2 and using it with the UUU tool, the flashing process goes well. However, during boot, the system fails to reach the root prompt, and I'm unable to log in.

I would greatly appreciate any insights or suggestions on what changes I might need to make in the rootfs, kernel, or u-boot to properly support OSTree rootfs integration.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Running into the same issue. How did you solve it? I have a kernel panic:
