+ <title>Reference: Images</title>

+ <para>
+ Poky has several standard images covering most people's standard needs. A full
+ list of image targets can be found by looking in the directories
+ <filename class="directory"> meta/recipes-core/images/</filename>,
+ <filename class="directory"> meta/packages/images/</filename>,
+ <filename class="directory"> meta/recipes-sato/images/</filename> and
+ <filename class="directory"> meta/packages/meta/</filename>. The standard
+ images are listed below along with details of what they contain:
+ </para>

+ support of target device hardware
