Hi  All,


        I want to create a New BSP for ARM CorteXA9 based board . I have downloaded the poky 9.0.2 and create the new BSP with the following commands as mentioned in the Manual.


               "yocto-bsp create myarm arm" command and selected the "linux-Yocto_3.4" as my kernel.I have modified the bblayeres

                                    LCONF_VERSION = "6"

                                    BBPATH = "${TOPDIR}"
                                    BBFILES ?= ""

                                    BBLAYERS ?= " \
                                    /home/murali/src/dinesh/yocto/poky/meta \
                                    /home/murali/src/dinesh/yocto/poky/meta-yocto \
                                    /home/murali/src/dinesh/yocto/poky/meta-yocto-bsp \
                                    /home/murali/src/dinesh/yocto/poky/meta-myarm \
                                    "
                                    BBLAYERS_NON_REMOVABLE ?= " \
                                                /home/murali/src/dinesh/yocto/poky/meta \
                                                /home/murali/src/dinesh/yocto/poky/meta-yocto \
                                                            "


       1. my question is where i hAve to add the kernel PATH (git path) in SRC_URI.

                Whether i have add inside the  mete-myarm/kernel_recipes/linux/linux-yocto_3.4.bbappend. or some where else.


      2. when i entered the "bitbake core-image-minimal" command its start executing tasks , but after some time ,its try to "do_fetch" the linux-yocto_3.8.git kernel as per the *.bb in the below path
                        "/home/murali/src/dinesh/yocto/poky/meta/recipes-kernel/linux_3.8.bb"


          My question is why 3.8 kernel is doing "do_fetch" , my aim is build the 3.4 kernel for my board.


          can some one help me out ?? or point some examples


Regards,
Dinesh kumar.v
