[Ltib] "Variant" platform builds

[Lunceford, Bruce]

Hi. I’m new to the list but not so new to LTIB.

I am looking at having multiple builds of one platform. So no need to select a new plat in the configuration but we may select a different kernel config, bootloader config, list of packages etc for the final file system image.

 

Another need for this is to allow different startup configuration files/scripts for variations of hardware that are still supported under the main platform configuration. This would allow for one major platform version with multiple configuration variations. This should minimize what needs to be versioned/tracked.

I would create a spec file for each “variant”.

 

I’d like to know if anyone out there has dealt with this and if I’m on the right track for implementing this.
