Re: Query regarding booting XEN on Banana Pi-M1 noard.

[siddhartha v <siddhuvgowda.18695@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello @Bertrand Marquis sir, 

I referref the docs and trying to build the Xen for Banana-Pi M1. 

my BBfile.conf is:

# POKY_BBLAYERS_CONF_VERSION is increased each time build/conf/bblayers.conf
# changes incompatibly
POKY_BBLAYERS_CONF_VERSION = "2"

BBPATH = "${TOPDIR}"
BBFILES ?= ""

BBLAYERS ?= " \

  "

and changes local.conf

MACHINE ??= "bpi-m1 " (Here I have tried multiple names for banana Pim1)
DISTRO_FEATURES += "arm-autonomy-host"

But the bitbake is not happening below I am attaching the errors may I know what wrong I am doing here please:

for 

MACHINE ??= "bpi-m1 " (Here I have tried multiple names for banana Pim1)
DISTRO_FEATURES += "arm-autonomy-host"

It seems that their certificate expired. This should be solved shortly (I hope).

An other solution is to directly do a git clone of the layer git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-arm
