[yocto] Initramfs framework buggy ?

[Ayoub Zaki]

Hello,

when udev is not included in PACKAGE_INSTALL within the initramfs image
recipe (which I don't want to use !), the boot fails (no device nodes !)
even when using both USE_DEVFS = "0" and "1" because the dev/ folder is not
created !

here my recipe :

DESCRIPTION = "base initramfs"

PACKAGE_INSTALL = "${VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_base-utils}
${ROOTFS_BOOTSTRAP_INSTALL}"

# Do not pollute the initrd image with rootfs features
IMAGE_FEATURES = ""

export IMAGE_BASENAME = "base-initramfs-image"
IMAGE_LINGUAS = ""

LICENSE = "MIT"

IMAGE_FSTYPES = "${INITRAMFS_FSTYPES}"
inherit core-image

USE_DEVFS = "0"

IMAGE_ROOTFS_SIZE = "8192"
IMAGE_ROOTFS_EXTRA_SPACE = "0"

BAD_RECOMMENDATIONS += "busybox-syslog"

I'm using latest krogoth branch, same isssue with jethro.
