[meta-freescale] [meta-fsl-arm][PATCH V2] Add compression method to apply to SDCARD

[Ayoub Zaki]

hello,

I want also to get a compressed sdcard image out of the Build, following
with you suggestion by setting :

IMAGE_FSTYPES = "tar.bz2 ext3 sdcard.gz"

I get in the fac an *-image.rootfs.sdcard.bz2 but this image is missing the
rootfilesystem and wont' work please check image_types_fsl.bbclass
something should be wrong there.
