I'm removing only -d. If -d, could you use mcopy instead? See Patch 1/2 for an example of a recursive population of the image using mcopy. Alternatively, you could bbappend dosfstools in meta-ti to include these patches. Obviously we don't want to remove it from oe-core until you do one or the other, but ultimately, I think it's better that we remove it rather than continue to carry the out-of-tree patches forward. Of course, we could try to convince someone to dig in and properly fix the feature and push to get it upstream - but for licensing reasons, we'd still be stuck carrying the patches. Since mcopy works properly as it is, I feel it's the preferable option. Is anyone else making use of the -d feature? - -- Darren Hart Intel Open Source Technology Center Yocto Project - Linux Kernel -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJO62ZFAAoJEKbMaAwKp364kwEIAKcZsX3C9NdzQN10tr0QaAjp or+ua304+FVlxqsxupUmIA19zm9luAx2xjinmb2Bzuidf2SqBtF/yFXSlMqFGden YsuiSR83kZPulTxA7oc1VqZ2tD9mfPh3x08mPhNC81ldbpthIjDwOhKg5jyKZS29 FwUOxVzPlG460yoH73K3MiRs0IN+v8cAZTTofPFX3YcibH+hMG73r8KFsG3wHZqp GsAWRHjQfEcFgYpKMydbv18t3VFNsWNZQFIndV7GPrn0ORHQhT+ctLK9/uin7hh+ g2SJ+BBuAE3fMqSxsW+scn6dYAmx//OBHbMU3PhB7V54aBBVtLJVUfNGoNQwxkw= =DSZO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
