mkgummidisk

The recent change to refactor how wic gets bitbake data fails to parse the HDDDIR correctly.


$ wic create mkgummidisk.wks -e core-image-minimal
Checking basic build environment...
Done.

Creating image(s)...

Error: Couldn't find HDDDIR, exiting

This was working correctly for both generix86 and intel-* machines. I set the EFI_PROVIDER = "gummitboot" and then call wic as above.
