Just wanted to provide an update if anyone stumbles on this in the future. This
is more or less what I've done to get it working. I created a recipe called
core-image-minimal-disk-image_1.0.bb. The contents of that recipe is below:
SUMMARY = "Installs the disk image generated from core-image-minimal"
LICENSE = "CLOSED"
SRC_URI = ""
DEPENDS += "core-image-minimal"
do_install () {
install -d ${D}/usr/share/vm
cp ${DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE}/core-image-minimal-latest.ext4
${D}/usr/share/vm/rootfs.raw || \
bbnote "Guest image not found. Make sure core-image-minimal is built."
}
FILES:${PN} += "/usr/share/vm/rootfs.raw"
The only other "extra" thing was I had to add a core-image-minimal.bbappend
that added IMAGE_FSTYPES:append = " ext4" and IMAGE_LINK_NAME = "${PN}-latest".
I am still trying to improve it in 2 key ways:
* I would really love it if the rootfs.raw was just included as a partition on
the final disk image. That way I could grow it with systemd-growfs or similar.
* Currently it is using the same machine, and thus the same, kernel as the host
OS. Not a deal breaker but not ideal.
I do not think this is "right", or maybe it is, either way I'm still open to
further constructive criticism.
