[yocto] any pointers to a yocto-based image to use as a live install utility?

  specifically in the context of powerpc systems, are there any
suggestions for an image that could be used to boot an older powerpc
system, running completely out of ram, and using that as an install
utility which would then be responsible for detecting/formatting a
hard drive, creating/formatting filesystems, downloading/installing
the OS, post-install configuration and so on?

  i realize that's a spectacularly imprecise request -- in a general
sense, it involves just starting with a regular image, then adding
utilities that run around doing all of the above, but if there's
anything that already takes one most of the way there, that'd be
great.

  thoughts?
