If you really care about image size then core-image-minimal is an example
image which just about boots and not much else, from which you can add more
packages as required.

What is your goal with the image you are describing?

It sounds like you are heading for on-target development.

Try using the variables described in this section of the YP Development
Tasks Manual (
https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.4.1/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#excluding-packages-from-an-image
).

[meta-intel] Bare minimum configuration

[Tim Jones]

Hi Folks,

I've now gotten a good feel for how Yocto puts things together, but I'm 
running into a wall trying to find the package selections.  What I'm 
shooting for is a meta-intel build with the hardware as provided, but I 
want to remove everything from the package list except for a few 
specific items - busybox, a custom python configuration, dhcp tools, 
vim, init, and grub.


Is there a document that describes paring things down to this level?

Thanks,
Tim
