Recommended Yocto project image for UART console?

[maheshkumarkoda]

Hi Community,

I am building U-boot using Yocto project to boot up my Custom board, With U-boot basic initialization I like to download customized Bootloader in next level, I want to know recommended image name for enabling UART console to see feedback from the board.

I came across two Image names:

1). core-image-minimal : A small image that only allows a device to boot.

2). core-image-base : A console only image that fully supports the target device hardware.

I guess i can use core-image-base? If yes, does it take longer booting time than core-image-minimal?

Hi Mahesh

both have uart console but since core-image-minimal is smaller

less boot time can be expected.

Best regards

igor
