[yocto] Custom defconfig is not used

[Andrea Adami]

Hi,

I guess you're setting a wrong FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/files:"

See this example, using simple defconfig for some devices and an
experimental configuration (WIP ;) fo others using fragments.

http://cgit.openembedded.org/meta-handheld/tree/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto_3.10.bbappend

Cheers

Andrea
