Yocto alone should give you working Sato images; I am fairly certain
that works with Denzil.

If you want/need stuff like accelerated graphics, you have to use
meta-ti, but meta-ti does not play very well with Yocto, so expect to
have to do some tweaking to get things to build. Beyond that, my
experience is that actually getting the meta-ti accelerated video work
is a rather time consuming miss and hit exercise without any guaranteed
results at the end -- if you do not need this for your purposes, then
I'd say don't bother.
