This custom file in the distribution layers will be picked up similarly to the bblayers.conf.sample and local.conf.sample. 43402 1 srifenbark 2014-05-19 07:41:54 +0000 Hi, I have updated a couple reference sections to address this issue. Please review them: http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.7/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#structure-core-script http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.7/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#structure-memres-core-script Thanks, Scott 43508 2 bluelightning 2014-05-22 15:50:22 +0000 The new section mentions that you can just edit this file, but that's not really what people should be doing since that's modifying the core. One way to do it is to set TEMPLATECONF (an environment variable, not a bitbake variable) to point to a directory where the custom conf-notes.txt can be found. In a repository this can be set within a .templateconf file - hopefully we document that somewhere as well. 43995 3 srifenbark 2014-06-17 06:50:46 +0000 Hi, There is a new section now to address the usage part of setting up a template with configurations. See http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.7/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#creating-a-custom-template-configuration-directory. I am leaving the bug at IN PROGRESS REVIEW for a while longer. Scott 44086 4 srifenbark 2014-06-19 04:57:37 +0000 Setting milestone to M3. Still needs reviewed. Scott 44795 5 srifenbark 2014-07-29 06:47:55 +0000 Hi, I am setting this bug to RESOLVED and flipping the documentation flag to "Done." The solution has been under review for over a month with no feedback. Thanks, Scott 44796 6 lpapp 2014-07-29 06:51:29 +0000 Hi Scott, Apologies for not having had time for Yocto lately. I think your improvement is great, thanks! 44802 7 srifenbark 2014-07-29 10:29:10 +0000 No worries Laszlo. Thanks for confirming the text. Scott
