Victor, apologies for hijacking your thread.

If you are interested to use minimal, be sure to give it a try.
It works like a charm for me. and according to the testing page on the
wiki (http://wiki.openembedded.org/index.php/Testing) there are
several reports for native-sdk-image building under the minimal distro
(for various machines).
And if you encounter issues, feel free to send another mail to the
list or join the #oe irc channel on freenode. Often there is someone
around in that channel willing to help you.

Enjoy OE! Frans (eFfeM on irc).
