Create your own DISTRO based on SimpleCore™#

After you created your Setup a workspace with project specific layer(s) you can define your own Distribution.

This is especially helpful, if you want to change the used logo. See Custom Logos and branding for more details.

Create a distro config#

Browse to the root path of your project layer and run

$ mkdir -p conf/distro
$ touch conf/distro/mydistro.conf

and fill the new file mydistro.conf with the following content

require conf/distro/simplecore-distro.conf

you can now add more settings below that line.

Start your build#

from the console you can now run

  • bitbake
  • scotty
    $ DISTRO="mydistro" bitbake <image>

    $ DISTRO="mydistro" scotty build <image>
