Building an image to QEMU
Following the same steps used in Chapter 2, Baking Our Poky-Based System, we are going to build an image to the QEMU ARM emulation.
The first step is to create the first project, which is a collection of configurations and builds that have already been performed.
As we don't have a project, we need to start one. Create a
and choose the target release, as shown in the following screenshot:Project name

After creating my-first-project
, we can see the main project screen, as shown in the following screenshot:

While on the Configuration
tab, go to Machine
and change it to qemuarm

After that, click the Image Recipes
tab to choose the image you want to build. In this example, as used in Chapter 2, Baking Our Poky-Based System, we can build core-image-full-cmdline
:

The following screenshot shows the build process:

The build process takes some time, but after that, we can see the built image along with some statistics:
