Hi Carlos, thanks for reporting the failure.

So:

Yocto Release 1.4?
MACHINE=qemux86
DISTRO="poky-tiny"
target linux-yocto-tiny

?

I just built this successfully from the dylan branch using the same git
hashes you have listed above for the meta and machine branches.

Can you provide any additional information about your build environment?
Maybe share your local.conf and bblayers.conf.

Hate to ask, but did you run out of disk space?
