how to build filesystem without build the kernel image in yocto

[huyongfa]

now i'm blocked by the following error inyocto, when build fsl-image-gui, the do_fetch always be failed.

WARNING: Failed to fetch URL git://git.freescale.com/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git attempting MIRRORS if available.

i have my own kernel image, and don't need bo build this kernel image.

1. so is there some way to build a filesystem without build the kernel image?

i have tried specify the path of my own kernel in linux-imx_3.14.52.bb, but is always failed at do_configure.

Suggest for the Yocto questions, you can check the Yocto project.

If you check the yocto document you can find the command.

http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.2/mega-manual/mega-manual.html

also you can find in the task list.

do_package_setscene            Analyzes the content of the holding area and splits it into subsets based on available

...........

.......
do_rootfs                        Creates the root filesystem (file and directory structure) for an image
do_unpack                      Unpacks the source code into a working directory

Hello,

   I think, hardly this is possible and makes sense to build system without kernel built.

Regards,

Yuri.

it is very usefull for me, because it is need a very long time to git kernel source from git.freescale.com.

and this kernel is not needed for me,as i have my own kernel.
