[yocto] Delete unused hob images

[Giovanni Foiani]

Hi,

I read this section in Poky Reference manual:

*A.2.13. build/tmp/deploy/images/*
*
*
*This directory receives complete filesystem images. If you want to flash
the resulting image from a build onto a device, look here for the image.*
*
*
*Note, you should not remove any files from this directory by hand in an
attempt to rebuild an image. If you want to clean out the cache, re-run the
build using the following BitBake command: *
*     $ bitbake -c cleanall <target>*

I built many images using hob and in my *build/tmp/deploy/images/ *folder
there are a lot of rootfs images (like
hob-image-imx53qsb-<timestamp>.rootfs.ext3 etc..) and I want to remove the
unused ones to free some space..

I tried tp run:

*bitbake -c cleanall * hob-image-imx53qsb-<timestamp>

but I got:
ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES 'hob-image-imx53qsb-<timestamp>'

Can I safely remove these files by hand?

thanks

Giovanni
