The rootfs*
classes support creating
the root filesystem for an image and consist of the following classes:
The rootfs_deb
class, which supports
creation of root filesystems for images built using
.deb
packages.
The rootfs_rpm
class, which supports
creation of root filesystems for images built using
.rpm
packages.
The rootfs_ipk
class, which supports
creation of root filesystems for images built using
.ipk
packages.
The root filesystem is created from packages using one of the
rootfs*.bbclass
files as determined by the
PACKAGE_CLASSES
variable.
For information on how root filesystem images are created, see the "Image Generation" section.
