+ <title>Images</title>
+
+ <para>
+ The OpenEmbedded build system provides several example
+ images to satisfy different needs.
+ When you issue the <filename>bitbake</filename> command you provide a "top-level" recipe
+ that essentially begins the build for the type of image you want.
+ </para>
+
+ <note>
+ Building an image without GNU General Public License Version 3 (GPLv3),
+ GNU Lesser General Public License Version 3 (LGPLv3), and the
+ GNU Affero General Public License Version 3 (AGPL-3.0) components
+ is only supported for minimal and base images.
+ Furthermore, if you are going to build an image using non-GPLv3 and
+ similarly licensed components, you must make the following changes in
+ the <filename>local.conf</filename> file before using the BitBake
+ command to build the minimal or base image:
+ <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+ 1. Comment out the EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES line
+ 2. Set INCOMPATIBLE_LICENSE = "GPL-3.0 LGPL-3.0 AGPL-3.0"
+ </literallayout>
+ </note>
+
+ <para>
+ From within the <filename>poky</filename> Git repository, you can use
+ the following command to display the list of directories within the
+ <link linkend='source-directory'>Source Directory</link>
+ that contain image recipe files:
+ <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+ $ ls meta*/recipes*/images/*.bb
+ </literallayout>
+ </para>

+ Following is a list of supported recipes:
