[meta-freescale] configuring kernel for imx233

[Gnichi Mohamed]

Hello Otavio
Thanks for the reply!
I have a question, maybe it will sound silly :)
I want to downgrade the 3.14 kernel i am using on my minimal installation
core-image-minimal to 3.12 versions which worked for me before.
Can i specify the kernel version or any other package version?
How to do it?

Cordially
