Hi Saul,
Thanks for explaining. But I must say: to an outsider, the existing naming
does not explain how these 2 things relate to each other.
We are adding a description of the 'self-hosted-image' to Hob, including a
link to the Build Appliance page in the Yocto Project website. But I am
not sure it will be enough to fully explain the relationship between both.
Is there any reason why the recipe and the ovf file need to have different
names?
How about build-appliance-image and building a Build Appliance ovf
Sau!
Cheers
Belen

They are slightly different. The self-hosted-image is the recipe name
that generates the image. The build-appliance is the VMware OVF file
and bits needed to use VMPlayer or VMWorkstation. The self-hosted-image
is the underlying disk image used in the Build Appliance
Sau!
Thanks!
