boot loader: support root=UUID 2015-09-06T14:24:26+00:00 Patrick Ohly patrick.ohly@intel.com 2015-09-03T18:42:32+00:00 1e29d77d0d33ee216b43022439876863f0db39bb As mentioned when introducing the VM images (https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7374), the resulting images only work when the image is mounted as a disk that results in the hard-coded path (/dev/sda in the current default). Using the file system UUID to find the rootfs is more flexible. To enable this for boot-direct.bbclass and thus image-vm.bbclass (aka FSTYPEs vdi/vmdk/qcow2), set SYSLINUX_ROOT = "root=UUID=<<uuid-of-rootfs>>". The rootfs image must use an ext file system. The special string will get replaced in the APPEND line with the actual UUID when the boot loader (grub-efi, syslinux or gummiboot) writes the boot loader configuration files. At that time, the rootfs image has already been created and its UUID can be extracted using "tune2fs -l", which also should be available because the e2fsprogs-native tools were needed to create the image in the first place.
