-I. Building the meta-{{=machine}} BSP layer
-========================================
-
---- replace with specific instructions for your layer ---
-
-In order to build an image with BSP support for a given release, you
-need to download the corresponding BSP tarball from the 'Board Support
-Package (BSP) Downloads' page of the Yocto Project website.
-
-Having done that, and assuming you extracted the BSP tarball contents
-at the top-level of your yocto build tree, you can build a
-{{=machine}} image by adding the location of the meta-{{=machine}}
-layer to bblayers.conf, along with any other layers needed (to access
-common metadata shared between BSPs) e.g.:
-
- yocto/meta-xxxx \
- yocto/meta-xxxx/meta-{{=machine}} \
-
-To enable the {{=machine}} layer, add the {{=machine}} MACHINE to local.conf:
-
- MACHINE ?= "{{=machine}}"
-
-You should then be able to build a {{=machine}} image as such:
-
- $ source oe-init-build-env
- $ bitbake core-image-sato
-
-At the end of a successful build, you should have a live image that
-you can boot from a USB flash drive (see instructions on how to do
-that below, in the section 'Booting the images from /binary').
-
-As an alternative to downloading the BSP tarball, you can also work
-directly from the meta-xxxx git repository. For each BSP in the
-'meta-xxxx' repository, there are multiple branches, one corresponding
-to each major release starting with 'laverne' (0.90), in addition to
-the latest code which tracks the current master (note that not all
-BSPs are present in every release). Instead of extracting a BSP
-tarball at the top level of your yocto build tree, you can
-equivalently check out the appropriate branch from the meta-xxxx
-repository at the same location.
-
-
-II. Booting the images in /binary
-=================================
-
---- replace with specific instructions for your platform ---
-
-This BSP contains bootable live images, which can be used to directly
-boot Yocto off of a USB flash drive.
-
-Under Linux, insert a USB flash drive. Assuming the USB flash drive
-takes device /dev/sdf, use dd to copy the live image to it. For
-example:
-
-# dd if=core-image-sato-{{=machine}}-20101207053738.hddimg of=/dev/sdf
-# sync
-# eject /dev/sdf
-
-This should give you a bootable USB flash device. Insert the device
-into a bootable USB socket on the target, and power on. This should
-result in a system booted to the Sato graphical desktop.
-
-If you want a terminal, use the arrows at the top of the UI to move to
-different pages of available applications, one of which is named
-'Terminal'. Clicking that should give you a root terminal.
-
-If you want to ssh into the system, you can use the root terminal to
-ifconfig the IP address and use that to ssh in. The root password is
-empty, so to log in type 'root' for the user name and hit 'Enter' at
-the Password prompt: and you should be in.
-
-----
-
-If you find you're getting corrupt images on the USB (it doesn't show
-the syslinux boot: prompt, or the boot: prompt contains strange
-characters), try doing this first:
-
-# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdf bs=1M count=512
