In openembedded, I see the some lines like this

# Add the required image file system types below. Valid are
# jffs2, tar(.gz|bz2), cpio(.gz), cramfs, ext2(.gz), ext3(.gz), ext4(.gz|.bz2),
# squashfs, squashfs-lzma
IMAGE_FSTYPES = "jffs2 tar"

which is moved to hob-post.conf, which may causing the problems I hope.
