Description Opensource 2012-08-17 20:13:12 UTC 
I created a new BSP using:

yocto-bsp create LX800 i386

When prompted for a machine branch I selected option 4 (standard/default/base), which gives

KBRANCH_LX800  = "standard/default/base/LX800"
YOCTO_KERNEL_EXTERNAL_BRANCH_LX800  = "standard/default/base/LX800"

in the linux-yocto_3.2.bbappend file of the created BSP meta-data. This causes a build-time failure within do_patch when the kernel is built.

Bruce Ashfield has indicated that the above kernel branches should not include the /base element. If it is removed, do_patch runs to completion.

This was all run under Denzil 7.0.1.
