<p>Hello All,</p>
<p>I had one more query and emailing the same. </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>After <span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">building a full Yocto</span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"> image(with XenGt) for
our embedded Intel board by integrating the meta-layers in #2 with #1 as in my previous email, should I attempt installing this new Yocto image in our embedded Intel board, try doing the configurations, other installations/grub changes etc.(as relevant in
Yocto) relating to XenGt and post that attempt to boot through the dom0 kernel as mentioned in the link below for Debian? </span></p>
