I had built a Yocto image from honister branch. I created a bootable USB drive and flashed my image into it. Whenever I wanted to boot into the USB drive, I am always given 3 different choice:
boot, install, Reboot Into Firmware Interface
This is a picture of what I see when I boot:
My question are there any way I can make my yocto image in my USB drive to boot straight into the OS without giving any of those options?
Do I need to make the needed configuration in my already built image or I need to rebuild the image after changing some configuration in my poky or any other meta layers?
Thanks,
Hari

I have built an image for the TQ Systems STKa8x Evaluation board with an i.MX8 QuadMax using the yocto project. The resulting image does not boot on the device. Can anyone help me interpret the warnings and errors occuring in the serial console output when trying to boot?
I think the the machine configuration might be wrong? The device hardware is ok, becaus the device boots using the included sd card.
Did you flash your Yocto image in your emmc or SDcard ? Here it seams that there is no partition table in your emmc which is normally embedded inside Linux image. It is more likely that the flash did not succeed.
Plus you can see warning from u-boot that he cannot load the device tree. Check your repository build/tmp/deploy/image/machine/*.dtb
You should also check if your linux image and device tree is flashed in the correct address.
Solved: The problem was caused by the SD card. I have used this SD card https://de.transcend-info.com/embedded/product/embedded-memory-cards/usd230i. Using another one solved my problem.
I have DELL inspiron 7560 which has pre installed with windows. I want to dual boot it with Ubuntu. I have created a booatable device. But on startup it is not showing USB drive to install Ubuntu.
What tool/utility did you use to create the bootable USB?
If you did use Rufus to create your USB, after setting up the USB and clicking "START", select "Write in DD Image Mode" instead of "Write in ISO Image Mode".
I have found that writing in ISO Image Mode tends to make bootable Linux USB's to not appear or work properly.
Computers nowadays use UEFI by default, so make sure that your bootable USB is formatted as GPT. Otherwise if you create a bootable USB with MBR instead of GPT, it may not be visible.
Make sure that you are going into either the F12 boot menu in the BIOS, or set the boot order priority in the BIOS, or else you won't be able to boot from the USB drive.
Am stuck in making a bootable SD-Card.
I have gpt_both0.bin, hyp.mbn, NON-HLOS.bin, rpm.mbn, sbl1.mbn, sec.dat, tz.mbn, emmc_appsboot.mbn, boot.img and rootfs.img files.
When i flash all of 'em into eMMC (using fastboot command) the board boots easily and we dont face any problems. But now i also have to make a bootable SD-Card to boot board via SD-card.
Can anyone please explain how can i achieve this !
I am using Ubuntu-14.04 on my PC.
I am a newbie to yoto project; but I had created images for ARM7(Cortex-A8) via Hob or BitBake, now I am trying to emulate this Image to Qemu. I created image using beaglebone available with poky by default and also with 'meta-ti' layer.
I am working for Sitara Am335x processor. Please direct me in proper way. Thanks in advance.
I first created system images using Windows backup then realized that those VHD files cannot be booted using Virtual PC.
So I found the utility Disk2VHD and spent a few hours making a new VHD and tried booting it with Virtual PC but it too cannot boot.
It is giving the error:
PXE-E53: no boot filename received
I followed some instructions found online on going into the Virtual PC settings and ensuring I have the right vhd set up which I do, I also have integration features unavailable.
I then went into the Virtual PC's BIOS and in The Boot menu and it says under Hard Disk Drives [Virtual HD] and in the boot priorities the 1st boot device is the Hard Drive.
This VHD is created from my C: which is my main Windows install (Windows 7 Pro 64-bit)
The whole goal of this is I want to format my drive and install new Windows but I wanted to be able to make a bootable image I could go into later to recover things as needed and see how stuff was setup if I forgot.
When you converted it over, did you check in the checkbox which allows the file to be used in Virtual PC? I forget what it's called but in there is a checkbox you have to click in before you convert it over.
Also make sure the drive isn't bigger than 127GB or Virtual PC won't recognize it.
