However, in openSUSE, it is installed in /usr/sbin, which is not, by default, included in PATH. Running wic after appending /usr/sbin to the PATH provides a temporary workaround: $ PATH=$PATH:/usr/sbin wic create directdisk -e core-image-base Perhaps a special case should be included in the find_binary_path function in fs_related.py for openSUSE. 50088 1 eduard.bartosh 2015-04-04 18:58:46 +0000 Here is my attempt to fix this issue: http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2015-April/103342.html Let's see if it gets merged. 50097 2 eduard.bartosh 2015-04-06 18:21:47 +0000 First attempt was rejected: http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2015-April/103344.html Second attempt: http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2015-April/103387.html Hopefully this one has more chances to succeed. 50297 3 eduard.bartosh 2015-04-14 14:29:07 +0000 Fixed by this commit: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=ea07f0325cdbeb40884aa55707b8787b63554e3e Now wic uses native parted, so to make it working your need to bake parted-native. 50619 4 costin.c.constantin 2015-04-29 19:32:14 +0000 Hello, i came to this bug as a result of having a look on 6863. Tested on latest poky master hash: ae736dbdd140975ba43f06e635b461dbf36a117e steps performed: 1) cloned a fresh copy of poky 2) changed MACHINE to genericx86 in local.conf 3) bitbake core-image-sato-sdk 4) bitbake parted-native 4) wic create ../scripts/lib/image/canned-wks/directdisk.wks -e core-image-sato-sdk Everything is fine. Marking as verified. Costin
