Description dhanasekar 2018-08-10 06:49:05 UTC
I am new to Yocot Project. I am working on to port yocto on my micro server. I am using "Intel Common Platform" BSP (meta-intel). 

H/W Details: 

CPU : Intel Rangely C2000 - Mohon Peak CRB
BIOS: Coreboot with UEFI Payload. 
HDD: mSata
BMC: Open BMC - facebook

Steps followed: 

1. download source "git clone -b sumo git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky"

2. cd poky and download "git clone -b sumo git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-intel"

3. run the command " source oe-init-build-env"

4. Added below changes, 
        "..meta-intel(/home/user/dhanasekar/yocto_sumo1/poky/meta-intel \)" in bblayers.conf 
         MACHINE ?= "intel-core2-32" in local.conf

5. Run "bitbake core-image-sato" in build folder

6. After built, flashed .HDDIMG to USB.
    $sudo dd if=core-image-sato-intel-core2-32.hddimg of=/dev/sdb1

7. Powered on my micro server, after EFI_SHELL, I got below options,

    -boot
    -Install
    -Reboot into firmware

8. After selecting "install" option, I am getting black screen. 

9. Added serial console 'console=ttyS0,115200' in kernel boot line when using 
'install', still getting black screen. 


Please correct me, if i did any mistake.
If you need any additional information, Please let me know.

After editing kernel boot parameter(ttys0 as ttys1), I can able to see installation process. 
We can close this bug.
