Thanks Soren,

My followup question is: Can I mix toolchains in this situation?

Can I compile the initramfs binaries with the uclibc toolchain based on the poky-tiny distro and the regular file system binaries with the glibc-based toolchain (based on a different distro)?

If this is possible, how would I begin to do it?

Thanks,

Brian

Hi,

Was wondering why this has not been answered.  Maybe it is too dumb of a
question? If so, let me know or point me to some documentation.

I'm declaring an initramfs-image like this. As you can see the recipe is
derived from core-image-minimal-initramfs. The package initramfs-vm provides
the script /init executed on boot.

The "assembling" of the actual bootable image with initramfs and rootfs (in my
case a squashfs) is done in another script.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
# initramfs for vm-image. Derived from core-image-minimal-initramfs
DESCRIPTION = "Small image capable of booting a a squashfs+aufs filesystem"

IMAGE_INSTALL = "initramfs-vm-boot busybox udev base-passwd"

# Do not pollute the initrd image with rootfs features
IMAGE_FEATURES = ""
IMAGE_LINGUAS = ""
#DISTRO_FEATURES = ""

inherit core-image

IMAGE_FSTYPES = "cpio"

IMAGE_PREPROCESS_COMMAND = "cb16_remote_bloat;"

cb16_remote_bloat() {
         rm -r ${IMAGE_ROOTFS}/boot
}
