Hi Paul,

Try adding:

VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_base-utils-syslog = "syslog"

as shown on:

https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/tree/meta-poky/conf/local.conf.sample.extended#n371

I would expect that since you have systemd, you'd have the systemd
journal as well so
you wouldn't need syslog but it would be good to do a sanity check.


If that doesn't help, show us what the kernel panic is saying.
Is this with a custom BSP and if so can you reproduce with qemux86-64?

Try the same things using poky on the master branch if you can.
