Launch the Build Appliance with vmplayer 2. Build a minimal image for qemux86 3. Run "runqemu qemux86" to boot up the qemu image The image can not boot up and the following error occurs: runqemu - INFO - Assuming MACHINE = qemux86 runqemu - INFO - Running MACHINE=qemux86 bitbake -e... runqemu - INFO - MACHINE: qemux86 runqemu - INFO - DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE: /home/builder/poky/build/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86 runqemu - INFO - Running ls -t /home/builder/poky/build/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86/*.qemuboot.conf... runqemu - INFO - CONFFILE: /home/builder/poky/build/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86/core-image-minimal-qemux86-20170331003747.qemuboot.conf runqemu - INFO - Overriding conf file setting of STAGING_DIR_NATIVE to /home/builder/poky/build/tmp/work/i586-poky-linux/defaultpkgname/1.0-r0/recipe-sysroot-native from Bitbake environment runqemu - INFO - Overriding conf file setting of STAGING_BINDIR_NATIVE to /home/builder/poky/build/tmp/work/i586-poky-linux/defaultpkgname/1.0-r0/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/bin from Bitbake environment runqemu - INFO - Continuing with the following parameters: runqemu - INFO - Running /sbin/ip link... runqemu - INFO - Setting up tap interface under sudo runqemu - INFO - Acquiring lockfile /tmp/qemu-tap-locks/Error: Unable to find tunctl binary in '/home/builder/poky/build/tmp/work/i586-poky-linux/defaultpkgname/1.0-r0/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/bin', please bitbake qemu-helper-native.lock... runqemu - INFO - Acquiring lockfile /tmp/qemu-tap-locks/Error: Unable to find tunctl binary in '/home/builder/poky/build/tmp/work/i586-poky-linux/defaultpkgname/1.0-r0/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/bin', please bitbake qemu-helper-native.lock failed: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: "/tmp/qemu-tap-locks/Error: Unable to find tunctl binary in '/home/builder/poky/build/tmp/work/i586-poky-linux/defaultpkgname/1.0-r0/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/bin', please bitbake qemu-helper-native.lock" runqemu - INFO - Created tap: Error: Unable to find tunctl binary in '/home/builder/poky/build/tmp/work/i586-poky-linux/defaultpkgname/1.0-r0/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/bin', please bitbake qemu-helper-native runqemu - INFO - Running sudo /home/builder/poky/scripts/runqemu-ifdown Error: Unable to find tunctl binary in '/home/builder/poky/build/tmp/work/i586-poky-linux/defaultpkgname/1.0-r0/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/bin', please bitbake qemu-helper-native /home/builder/poky/build/tmp/work/i586-poky-linux/defaultpkgname/1.0-r0/recipe-sysroot-native sudo runqemu-ifdown <tap-dev> <native-sysroot-basedir> Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/builder/poky/scripts/runqemu", line 1199, in <module> ret = main() File "/home/builder/poky/scripts/runqemu", line 1189, in main config.setup_network() File "/home/builder/poky/scripts/runqemu", line 952, in setup_network self.setup_tap() File "/home/builder/poky/scripts/runqemu", line 923, in setup_tap tapnum = int(tap[3:]) ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: "or: Unable to find tunctl binary in '/home/builder/poky/build/tmp/work/i586-poky-linux/defaultpkgname/1.0-r0/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/bin', please bitbake qemu-helper-native" KERNEL: [/home/builder/poky/build/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86/bzImage--4.10.2+git0+69bfa87234_827a1164b1-r0-qemux86-20170331003747.bin] MACHINE: [qemux86] FSTYPE: [ext4] ROOTFS: [/home/builder/poky/build/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86/core-image-minimal-qemux86-20170331003747.rootfs.ext4] CONFFILE: [/home/builder/poky/build/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86/core-image-minimal-qemux86-20170331003747.qemuboot.conf]
Same issue as https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11266 The file conf/auto.conf contains INHERIT += "rm_work" After commenting out this line and rebuilding the core-image-minimal, everything works as expected. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 11266 ***
