Where is core-image recipe ?

[manjunathjoshi]

Hello All,

Where is core-image recipe? If i see core-image-minimal.bb,

SUMMARY = "A small image just capable of allowing a device to boot."

IMAGE_INSTALL = "packagegroup-core-boot ${ROOTFS_PKGMANAGE_BOOTSTRAP} ${CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL}"

IMAGE_LINGUAS = " "

LICENSE = "MIT"

inherit core-image

IMAGE_ROOTFS_SIZE ?= "8192"

So where is it getting all the packages from? If i have to see and edit the packages it is downloading where should i look at??

Please let me know.

Regards,

Manju

The "core-image" class is defined in poky/meta/classes/core-image.bbclass, this is the class that core-image-minimal.bb recipe inherits from.

I believe  "inherit" means that they inherit the class "core-image" and not a recipe by that name,  This class is likely located somewhere in the yocto python source code.

Hello,

Thanks for reply. I really appreciate the third link you have sent me. But my question was where is the core-image actually?

Means, let me put it this way,

core-image-sato

core-image-x11

core-image-base

core-image-minimal

All the above recipes use "core-image" as inherited common image. I hope you agree. Now, where is that ? I tried to grep but couldn't find.
