[yocto] Create uncompressed rootfs

[Roberto]

Hi,

 

I apologise if this is not the right channel for asking the following
question. If so, please advise me on a more appropriate support channel.

 

I am looking for the quickest workflow for debugging a recipe. I basically
need to modify a recipe, deploy the entire distribution to the target board
and test it.

 

have come to the conclusion that the quickest way is to boot the target
board through TFTP for the kernel and then mount the rootfs via NFS.

 

In my view, the only issue of this workflow is that when I bitbake the image
it creates a compressed rootfs that then I have to uncompress in order to
provide the rootfs to the target board via NFS.

 

Is there any way to avoid bitbake compressing the rootfs but rather having
it uncompressed in some folders under tmp/deploy ?

 

Regards,

 

Roberto
