Image

The image defines the final disk image that will be flashed on the target device. Generated disk/partition images put in $POKY/build/tmp/deploy/images/$MACHINE

Available images can be listed with:

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

Bitbake

Generally when you use bitbake, you build an image:

IMAGE=core-image-minimal
bitbake $IMAGE
