I think part of your problem might be that you are over-riding the
IMAGE_INSTALL variable in your core-image-sato.bbappend, I think you
should be using CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL_append = here instead and
allow the system to properly select what is part of the base install.

Remember to use a leading space when using the _append, if I remember
correctly this is one of the few places that += does not really behave
the way you want it.

Try what I suggest above and then we can go from there.
