If you want that you should probably put proper device name to your wks file. However, it's better to build efi image. Just booted my MinnowBoard MAX from genericx86-64 image flashed to sd card: root@genericx86-64:~# cat /proc/cmdline BOOT_IMAGE=/bzImage root=PARTUUID=f7952252-f409-4f5d-b448-1828b714b1b5 rootwait rootfstype=ext4 console=ttyS0,115200 console=tty0 root@genericx86-64:~# ls -la /dev/disk/by-partuuid/f7952252-f409-4f5d-b448-1828b714b1b5 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Aug 3 00:00 /dev/disk/by-partuuid/f7952252-f409-4f5d-b448-1828b714b1b5 -> ../../mmcblk1p2 Will try to build intel-corei7-64 image and boot it too. 67476 2 eduard.bartosh 2016-10-24 09:37:24 +0000 Minnow MAX doesn't boot with intel-corei7-64 EFI image. After running bootloader manually it showed message "Reboot Into Firmware Interface". It looks like bootloader issue to me. 67477 3 eduard.bartosh 2016-10-24 09:53:25 +0000 intel-corei7-64 wic images booted just fine after I've changed efi provider to grub-efi. Here is what I've added to my conf/local.conf to make it working: WKS_FILE = "mkefidisk.wks" IMAGE_FSTYPES += " wic" EFI_PROVIDER = "grub-efi" Here is a login promt on device: ... Poky (Yocto Project Reference Distro) 2.2 intel-corei7-64 /dev/ttyS0 intel-corei7-64 login: To sum it up: Original problem with non-efi image was that directdisk.wks was used to produce an image. It configured to use 'sda' device. Changing it to mmcblk1 should make it working. However, I wouldn't recommend this way. It's better to use EFI images as they should work on any device. The problem with EFI image was in mismatch between efi provider used for the machine(rmc-systemd-boot) and the one used in .wks file(grub-efi). Changing efi provider to grub-efi in conf/local.conf solved this. 67478 4 eduard.bartosh 2016-10-24 13:10:06 +0000 The image booted on Joule after changing bootloader to gummiboot: diff --git a/scripts/lib/wic/canned-wks/mkgummidisk.wks b/scripts/lib/wic/canned-wks/mkgummidisk.wks index f3ae090..7623e8f 100644 --- a/scripts/lib/wic/canned-wks/mkgummidisk.wks +++ b/scripts/lib/wic/canned-wks/mkgummidisk.wks @@ -4,8 +4,8 @@ part /boot --source bootimg-efi --sourceparams="loader=gummiboot" --ondisk sda --label msdos --active --align 1024 -part / --source rootfs --ondisk sda --fstype=ext4 --label platform --align 1024 +part / --source rootfs --ondisk sda --fstype=ext4 --label platform --align 1024 --use-uuid part swap --ondisk sda --size 44 --label swap1 --fstype=swap -bootloader --ptable gpt --timeout=5 --append="rootwait rootfstype=ext4 console=ttyS0,115200 console=tty0" +bootloader --ptable gpt --timeout=5 --append="rootwait rootfstype=ext4 console=ttyS2,115200 console=tty0" and these lines in conf/local.conf: WKS_FILE = "mkgummidisk.wks" IMAGE_FSTYPES += " wic" EFI_PROVIDER = "gummiboot" 67480 5 eduard.bartosh 2016-10-24 14:35:53 +0000 Fixed it by adding --use-uuid to systemd-bootdisk.wks: http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2016-October/127948.html With this change MinnowBoard MAX booted core-image-minimal-intel-corei7-64.wic to shell from MicroSD card with no other changes needed. 67481 6 benjamin.esquivel 2016-10-24 16:07:12 +0000 This change worked just fine, I tried it both in Minnowboard and Joule and both boot to login prompt. 68533 7 eduard.bartosh 2016-11-23 13:53:33 +0000 The fix has been accepted to poky master. 73517 8 oscarx.lopez.arandas 2017-05-25 20:52:59 +0000 wic image on SD card boot with success meta-intel Build Configuration: BB_VERSION = "1.34.0" BUILD_SYS = "x86_64-linux" NATIVELSBSTRING = "universal" TARGET_SYS = "x86_64-poky-linux" MACHINE = "intel-corei7-64" DISTRO = "poky" DISTRO_VERSION = "2.3" TUNE_FEATURES = "m64 corei7" meta-yocto-bsp = "HEAD:e5aa1ac23669a45491de9ecffac491c01e70203f" meta-intel = "master:7e8f98aa326f16edd679a95f7bb2daf4256479f3" 1. build a core image minimal with meta intel's machine intel-corei7-64 2. burn the wic image to an sd card using: sudo dd if=core-image-minimal-intel-corei7-64.wic of=/dev/mmcblk0 3. try to boot it 4.
