$ yocto-bsp create test i386
Checking basic git connectivity...
Done.

Would you like to use the default (3.8) kernel? (y/n) [default: y]


The kernel should be 3.10 by default.

This is ready to go, but in my testing, I ran into a problem with a qemuppc-based BSP that I'm currently working through with Bruce.

Once we can determine that no changes need to be made to the kernel metadata being generated as a result, I can post this code.  I doubt that changes will be needed, but I don't want to post and have them merged than have to go back and revert anything..

The qemuppc kernel build problem (on unbuntu 12.04 only, fedora 17 is fine) is unlikely to be a result of wrong BSP metadata, Bruce looked over the generated layer and didn't see anything wrong.

Will open a new bug for that instead of having it block this.

Bruce has sent a patch to the kernel tools to fix the qemuppc problem, so we're good on these updates.
