documentation/poky-ref-manual/ref-images.xml: Updated the list of images.
The list of images has grown. I added all images reported in the 1.1_M2 build using the 'ls meta*/recipes*/images/*.bb' command.

Poky has several standard images covering most people's standard needs.
|
||||
Use the following command to list the supported images:
|
||||
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
|
||||
$ ls meta*/recipes*/images/*.bb
|
||||
</literallayout>
|
||||
Images are listed below along with details of what they contain:
|
||||
The Yocto Project build process supports several types of images to satisfy different needs.
|
||||
When you issue the <filename>bitbake</filename> command you provide a “top-level” recipe
|
||||
that essentially begins the build for the type of image you want.

From within the <filename>poky</filename> Git repository use the following command to list
|

the supported images:

<literallayout class='monospaced'>

$ ls meta*/recipes*/images/*.bb

These recipes reside in the <filename>meta/recipes-core/images</filename>,

<filename>meta/recipes-extended/images</filename>,

<filename>meta/recipes-graphics/images</filename>, and

<filename>meta/recipes-sato/images</filename> directories of your local Yocto Project

file structure (Git repository or extracted release tarball).
|

Although the recipe names are somewhat explanatory, here is a list that describes them:
