[yocto] Image specific configuration files

[Alan Martinovic]

Thanks for the replay Iván,
am I reading correctly that this means that you create a single image
file per build
(which can be any of the given types)?
You're setup doesn't allow for building the "developent" and
"production" image at the same time?

Be Well,
Alan
