Hi all,
Wind River has maintained meta-installer for several years,
and now we want to contribute it to yocto community.
This layer provides an installation program based on
OE platform. The installation program is anaconda from
fedora, which is the installer of distribution Fedora,
RedHat and Centos.
I think you have missed your target audience. This list is for yocto specific
kernel changes. It is not for addition of new layers.
Sorry for the wrong place, I will correct it and resend

The version of anaconda in meta-installer is 26.21.11
which is based on Fedora 26.
The meta-insatller requires:
- systemd as init manager
- python3
- dnf2/rpm4
- gobject-introspection which requires qemu-usermode
in MACHINE_FEATURES
The meta-installer provides:
- graphic install and text install.
- package based (dnf/rpm) install and image (copy)
based install.
- package based (dnf/rpm) install from local and
remote rpm sources such as CDs and DVDs, images
stored on a hard drive, NFS, HTTP, and FTP.
- kickstart install which provides a fully unattended
installation that can be duplicated on scores of machines.
- install over VNC on headless machines.
- timezone setting.
- root password setting.
- user account creation.
- a variety of advanced storage devices including
LVM, Btrfs, Ext4, and filesystem encryption.
The repository of meta-installer is temporary on the github
for review:
https://github.com/jiahongxujia/meta-installer
In above github, the logo picture is undefined, if yocto
could accept this layer, I will update the picture with
"Yocto project Compatible".
The attachments are the snapshots of a package based
installation.
Hopefully it is helpful for yocto, and any feedback is
appreciated.
If yocto is interested in this layer and will accept it,
I could send pull request or some one directly fetch
from above github master branch.
