[yocto] Poky-tiny core-image-minimal issue

[Koehler, Yannick (HP Networking)]

Hi,

  I am new to Yocto, poky and anything in here.  I am having difficulty just running example I see in the documentation and would like to get pass that.  My goal, run poky-tiny/core-image-mimimal image inside qemux86 (should be basic from what I understand).

  I changed my local.conf to be using DISTRO = "poky-tiny" and did "bitbake -k core-image-minimal"  (didn't touch anything else).  I am using dizzy branch I believe of poky.  When I run the "runqemu qemux86 core-image-minimal ext2 nographic serial", I get unable to mount root fs.  If I use the "ramfs" option, then I get no /init as error.  Is ext2 kernel option part of the linux-yocto-tiny kernel? And if not, what is for me the simplest way to add it (without at this time creating my own layer)?

  What is the correct command set to build a poky-tiny/core-image-minimal system and run it with qemux86 (ramfs or not? Or both?)?

  Thanks for any help here.
