[OE-core] [PATCH 0/2] initrd contamination and explict PATH

[Darren Hart]

I ran into a bit of a nasty issue where EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES set in my
local.conf was causing core-image-initramfs to pull a bunch of files into
my initrd, including bash and a 100+MB vmlinux image. The 85M initrd caused
some strange initial boot behavior, and bash in the initrd caused our init
scripts to fail as bash has a different default PATH than busybox.

The following patches address these issues.

Live boot tested on 32 bit x86.

The following changes since commit bb4a5c44da23a1bb363f1f081cf1644fd7975957:

  linux-yocto: remove emenlow from meta-yocto bbappend (2.6.37 version) (2011-09-15 11:27:22 +0100)
