Introduction to Embedded Linux Part 4 - Yocto Custom Image and Layer | Digi-Key Electronics

[@mahendrasondagar2001]

As usual, super amazing...🤟 Looking forward to having the entire series of the Yocto just like your previous FreeRTOS series ✌

[@DrazenCika]

By now, I am used to press like before watching the video in this series :-)

Ok . I swore off low level coding tutorials for a while u sir got me excited to try this stuff again . I mean the explanation of mounting the rootfs after the clock init (fsbl1 layer) is literally 🔥 . I always found it wired that there where loads of coding tutorials on high level concepts, but not low level like this where u really feel as if u know what’s goin on if u should encounter any errors . Kudos 💯

[@BerndFelsche]

Useful stuff, even if not widely viewed.

[@memleaks_erik]

Shawn is awesome. Extremely valuable resource...explains things in such an easy to understand way.

[@jianlongtw]

Great video!! Just the one I needed. Thanks a lot.

[@soufiane_krem]

This is quite helpful ! Thank you

[@byteslee1729]

Free knowledge. Wow! I wish all universities taught students like that 😁🤣😂

[@kermitdaphrogge525]

Just can't thank you enough

[@ashes4755]

Very true

[@AndersJackson]

I guess the busybox that have the argument -P instead of -p when set the password. To change the boot partition, you can use the sed(1) command, as you know what to change. To redo the same command, you can try C-r to reverse search command line. Like C-r dd, and you can type C-r to continue search.

Shawn, thank you a lot, you are awesome

[@ibtissemjf5700]

Is it the same thing when working with the Raspberry Pi ??

[@exosdel]

Great videos!

[@krunalchauhan3587]

What a amazing session. Impressive content you cover. Thanks for it. I want to install docker into rugged board imx6ul How can I install it ?

[@siddeshu.h4229]

Great sir thank you

[@kamallochan5357]

how to add library to yocto ...so that we can use that library in application and run in qemu??

[@DevendraGuptaProfile]

Is there any book to learn this, i am lost here

[@AntoineLevesque-w4c]

Not sure why, but setting the password with -P in plain text would not compile for me. I have to create an encrypted password and use the -p flag instead.

[@AbdulRehman-eq3ns]

I tried but It's saying wrong password.. I also removed the debug-tweaks as well. but I used -p rather then -P. If I use - P it's giving me error.

ERROR: custom-image-1.0-r0 do_rootfs: custom-image: usermod command did not succeed. below command I'm using EXTRA_USERS_PARAMS = "usermod -P 'toor' root"

[@AbdulRehman-eq3ns]

for me lower -p worked

[@AbdulRehman-eq3ns]

Here is the solution: #Creating and setting password using kirkstone #run in terminal openssl passwd -6 Password: typeyourpassword Verifying - Password: typeyourpassword $6$CvYxu.4fiswa9Gah$xkiM8wJMb0Y49Op49aPjucbJSvMIePcO54JfMusKGP24GahxOKVnCUjyRCoH.sH6pQXuQ1SA.sIZ0E9szHjTY/ #Now add these lines in .bb file of local.conf file. #use '\' before each $ sign in the encrypted passwd inherit extrausers EXTRA_USERS_PARAMS = "usermod -p '\$6\$CvYxu.4fiswa9Gah\$xkiM8wJMb0Y49Op49aPjucbJSvMIePcO54JfMusKGP24GahxOKVnCUjyRCoH.sH6pQXuQ1SA.sIZ0E9szHjTY/' root;"

@@AbdulRehman-eq3ns thanks man, I had the same issue

[@samwang8054]

Anyone happened to encounter this issue: "usermod: prefix must be an absolute path"? It drives me crazy..

[@chrysolinsudhan6481]

For me adding a ; between " and \ in EXTRA_USERS_PARAMS = "\ helped. In other words, I am doing this : EXTRA_USERS_PARAMS = ";\

[@chrysolinsudhan6481]

For me, adding a semi-colin between " and \ helped. In other words, I am doing this : EXTRA_USERS_PARAMS = ";\ It built, but I havent flashed and checked login, so I don't know whether it is a proper fix.

VERY nice set of videos. However for me Yocto seems broken. I am using Ubuntu as the host machine, its a huge machine, plenty of ram, plenty of disc and plenty of everything. I have built a yocto and it works and now I want to mod it. I have done the sources command yet the create layer then bullshits that theres no space left on the device when it s trying to set up a watch. It even gives me a hint to look at the max user watches which is 65k... I would be more than a bit shocked that somehow this is not enough
