Hi all,

After reading the thread "Removing busybox completely from the generated
image" I tested to reproduce the method but this doesn't work as expected.

git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky -b thud
cd poky
echo 'require conf/distro/poky.conf' > meta-poky/conf/distro/poky-ng.conf
echo 'DISTRO = "poky-ng"' >> meta-poky/conf/distro/poky-ng.conf
echo 'VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_base-utils = ""' >> meta-poky/conf/distro/poky-ng.conf
sed -i 's/^DISTRO.*/DISTRO = "poky-ng"/' conf/local.conf
bitbake core-image-minimal
runqemu core-image-minimal kvm

After login as root there still a lot of links to busybox inside /sbin/
/bin/ /usr/sbin/ and /usr/bin/ .

Can someone provides a working method ?

Best Regards,

Jean-Christian de Rivaz
