Simply running "runqemu qemux86 ramfs" with a core-image-minimal built with poky-tiny works correctly. Unless there are some other requirements that I am not aware of, I am closing this. The poky-tiny wiki should be updated. 59025 4 srifenbark 2016-02-15 15:50:34 +0000 What is the URL for this wiki? I will see if I have access rights to change it. Scott 63367 5 srifenbark 2016-06-27 18:37:50 +0000 Can someone point me to the wiki and I will see if I have the rights to change it. Scott 64436 6 sgw 2016-07-25 21:21:40 +0000 Can you please give Scott some info for this item 64440 7 tom.zanussi 2016-07-25 21:30:20 +0000 https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Poky-Tiny 64540 8 tom.zanussi 2016-07-27 17:03:47 +0000 This appears to be a documentation task. 64687 9 srifenbark 2016-07-29 21:52:03 +0000 Hi, I checked out the wiki link and there is no mention of the runqemu script at all. In the YP manual set, we have a section dedicated to the runqemu command at http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.2/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#qemu-using-the-runqemu-command. I suspect we want to work in something about the using runqemu for poky-tiny. I don't really know where to fix this section. In the section, there is a long list of runqemu options. Should we have tiny in there (i.e. "QEMUARCH", "VM", and "MACHINE")? At the end of the section there are five examples of using runqemu. Should we add a sixth that uses poky-tiny? Regarding the wiki... not sure what is required on that.

From reading it, it appears that all one has to do is set DISTRO to poky-tiny in the local.conf file as follows: DISTRO = "<layer-name>-tiny" And then the user can run the following to run a qemux86 build and specify to boot an initial RAM disk image: runqemu qemux86 ramfs Is that correct? I can create another example that states you must set the DISTRO variable first (e.g. "poky-tiny" and then note the runqemu command. I can also provide a link into the poky-Tiny wiki page for details. Will that suffice for the doc portion of this bug?

The information on the wiki page should be correct. I guess you should ask the originator of the bug as to what will suffice for the doc portion. > > Thanks, > Scott 65420 14 srifenbark 2016-08-22 22:06:25 +0000 Cristian, Can you look at the thread of comments here and give me some input? Thanks, Scott 66016 15 tom.zanussi 2016-09-09 20:02:33 +0000 Assigning to Cristian since that's who NEEDINFO from. 67171 16 liezhi.yang 2016-10-12 08:48:42 +0000 I tried: $ runqemu tmp/deploy/images/qemux86/ ramfs It works well for me. I will update poky-tiny.conf a little, so that we can boot it by: $ runqemu tmp/deploy/images/qemux86/ Here is the patch: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/commit/?h=rbt/tiny&id=83e6d553413e6278b9ece0ca8f40eace9e52d0a2 67276 17 srifenbark 2016-10-14 19:21:01 +0000 I ran out of time for this in 2.2. I am putting it to 2.3 M1.
