Hi,
Every change in the linux kernel and compiling using bitbake "virtual/kernel" -c compile -f and then doing a bitbake fsl-image-validation-imx is taking lot of time near 3 hrs for single compilation. Is there any other way ...? so that we can modify the kernel and update in fsl-image-validation-imx-imx8mmevk.sdcard rootfs
Also let us know, How do i mount the fsl-image-validation-imx-imx8mmevk.sdcard and update the linux image and then again convert it to fsl-image-validation-imx-imx8mmevk.sdcard
Regards
Santhosh
Hello Santhosh,
For modifying u-boot code and kernel / device, you have 2 ways to save building time.
1. Using Yocto
(1) u-boot
--> bitbake u-boot-imx -f -c compile
--> bitbake u-boot-imx -c deploy
(2) kernel
--> bitbake linux-imx -f -c compile
--> bitbake linux-imx -c deploy
2. Using standalone for u-boot / kernel
see the link, please!

or see following linux documents:
--i.MX_Linux_User's_Guide.pdf
--i.MX_Porting_Guide.pdf
open document, and search "standalone", you will see steps on how to ...
