    <thetext>I am trying to define a BOOTDEV variable, which is referenced another variable &quot;BOOT_PARTITION&quot;, the code just shows as bellow:

file: poky/build/conf/local.conf

# Boot device Selection
BOOTDEV = &quot;${BOOT_PARTITION}&quot;

and, I will export BOOT_PARTITION=/dev/sda2, then run bitbake.
But it seems that BOOTDEV still be empty.</thetext>
