Nothing that you're doing wrong, it's just that the valleyisland BSPs
are built a little differently from the normal BSPs - instead of a
machine branch, they do a merge of a valleyisland-io branch into another
branch and the yocto-bsp tools aren't set up to do that.  They'd need to
be enhanced to enhanced to handle cases like that.  I'd suggest filing a
an enhancement bug so we can add that capability..

Thanks,

Tom
