[http://www.pokylinux.org/about Poky] is an open source platform build tool. It is a complete software development environment for = How to get the creation of Linux devices. It enables you to design, develop, build, debug, and test a complete, modern, software stack using Yocto Linux, the X Window System and GNOME Mobile based application frameworks for both x86 and ARM based platforms. Key features include:distribution =

*Full, fast, cross device filesystem creation with '''It's not an embedded Linux Kernel 2.6.x, GCC, GNU C library, Busybox, networking and much more.*Highly configurable and extendable with full documentation, granular feature control, packaging, and wide machine coverage.*Developer friendly with QEMU device virtulisation, SDK generation, Anjuta IDE, OProfile and GDB integration.*Complete GNOME Mobile platform with the X Window System, Matchbox, GTK+, D-Bus, GStreamer and distribution – it creates a custom one for you''Sato' reference implementation.*Support for bleeding edge OpenGL user interfaces with the Clutter toolkit.*A supported, stable and proven base for real world products built on Linux and open source software.

*The Yocto project website ( [http://www.yoctoproject.org )*The Yocto Project™] is an open source collaboration project documentation ( http://wwwthat provides templates, tools and methods to help you create custom Linux-based systems for embedded products regardless of the hardware architecture.yoctoprojectIt was founded in 2010 as a collaboration among many hardware manufacturers, open-source operating systems vendors, and electronics companies to bring some order to the chaos of embedded Linux development.org/ == Why use the Yocto Project™ == Because it's a complete embedded Linux development environment with tools, metadata, and documentation )*- everything you need. The Openembedded website free tools are easy to get started with, powerful to work with ( http://wwwincluding emulation environments, debuggers, an Application Toolkit Generator, etc.openembedded) and they allow projects to be carried forward over time without causing you to lose optimizations and investments made during the project’s prototype phase.org/ )The Yocto Project fosters community adoption of this open source technology allowing its users to focus on their specific product features and development

== Poky Build Platform Setup Environment ==

In order to build an image with BSP support for a given release, youneed to download the corresponding BSP repository. At this time latest stable branch for IGEP devices is denzil.

$ git clone -b denzil git://git.isee.biz/pub/scm/meta-iseepoky.git

Enter to the poky directory,

$ cd poky

and clone the meta-isee layer.

$ git clone -b denzil git://git.isee.biz/pub/scm/meta-isee.git

$ source oe-init-build-env

Having done that, and assuming you downloaded the BSP contentsat the top-level of your yocto build tree, you can build a igepimage by adding the location of the 'meta-igep ' layer toconf/'bblayers.conf, e.g.:'

<path to>Add below line into .../meta-isee \poky/build/conf/bblayers.conf:

To enable the isee layer, add the igep00x0 MACHINE &lt;path to conf&gt;/local.conf:poky/meta-isee \

To enable the isee layer, add the 'igep00x0 MACHINE ?= "igep00x0"' to .../poky/build/conf/local.conf:

MACHINE&nbsp;?= "igep00x0" You should then be able to build a image as such:

$ bitbake demo-image-sato

At the end of a successful build, you should have a an image that you could use for boot device from flash or a micro-SD card. == Extending the available packages with others layers == You can append more layers to your environment in order to build more packages, in following wxample you'll download the meta-openembedded layer. In your poky directory  $ git clone -b denzil git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded Add the layer into build/conf/bblayers.conf:   &lt;path to&gt;/poky/meta-openembedded/meta-oe \ Now you can build any of the new packages added, for example:  $ bitbake postgresql == Create your own Linux image == TODO == Yocto 1.2 'denzil' documentation ==  '''Official documentation''' * [http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.2/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.html Yocto Project Quick Start]: This short document lets you get started with the Yocto Project quickly and start building an image.* [http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.2/adt-manual/adt-manual.html The Yocto Project Application Development Toolkit (ADT) User's Guide]: This manual provides information that lets you get going with the ADT to develop projects using the Yocto Project.* [http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.2/bsp-guide/bsp-guide.html The Yocto Project Board Support Package (BSP) Developer's Guide]: This brief document defines a structure for BSP components.
