update: Skip calling flashcp for empty files Note explicitly when an empty image is provided that will not alter a flash partition. While using flashcp on an empty file succeeds and does not alter the flash, it may be confusing to see 0/0 messages for the erase, write, and verify phases. These empty files are used to trigger the save and restore phases and may also be used by developers to cause the update to fail and break into a shell at shutdown for maintence.

OpenBMC uses Yocto/Open-Embedded for a build system, which supports an out-of-tree build. It is recommended that you create an empty directory somewhere to hold the build. This directory will get big.
On Ubuntu 14.04 the following packages are required to build the default target
sudo apt-get install -y git build-essential libsdl1.2-dev texinfo gawk chrpath diffstat
On Fedora 23 the following packages are required to build the default target:
sudo dnf install -y git patch diffstat texinfo chrpath SDL-devel bitbake sudo dnf groupinstall "C Development Tools and Libraries"
To start a build:
cd <builddir> . <repodir>/openbmc-env bitbake obmc-phosphor-image
