Available formats are a subset of the supported images listed in IMAGE_TYPES." IMAGES_TYPES is documented good, but it is not clear what I can pick up from that list as the "subset" is a relative term here. Based on the subset range, I would either write down the supported types explicitly for IMAGE_FSTYPES, or I would write out what is not contained by the subset. Thank you in advance! 38188 1 sgw 2013-10-27 09:41:02 +0000 The subset is relative to the list in IMAGE_TYPES meaning that you would list the types you want created in IMAGE_FSTYPES for your target image. Scott, I will be back on Tuesday and we can discuss this if you need. 38189 2 lpapp 2013-10-27 09:52:51 +0000 OK, I see. So, the sentence can be misunderstood just like I accidentally I did. I would suggest to clarify the sentence then based on your explanation. The subset does not mean what is supported, but what the user can put in there, which can also be the complete list then, not just the subset. 38207 3 srifenbark 2013-10-28 13:11:23 +0000 Hi, The explanation was definitely ambiguous. I have rewritten it to be clearer. Let me know if this works. http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.6/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#var-IMAGE_FSTYPES Thanks, Scott 38208 4 lpapp 2013-10-28 13:15:25 +0000 Yes, this is better. I would give an example at least with two selected items to be more explicit, and also consistent with the variables (IMAGE_INSTALL, IMAGE_LINGUAS, IMAGE_NAME, etc) underneath this one in the documentation. 38210 5 srifenbark 2013-10-28 13:29:59 +0000 Laszlo, Good suggestions. Try this on for size and let me know what you think. http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.6/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#var-IMAGES_FSTYPES. Scott 38213 6 lpapp 2013-10-28 13:31:53 +0000 Looks good. I am happy with that, thanks. :) 38214 7 srifenbark 2013-10-28 13:37:26 +0000 Updated to RESOLVED. Thanks, Scott
