I would suggest starting at www.yoctoproject.org if you are new to 
OpenEmbedded. They have guides which are up to date and new user 
friendly. If you don't want to use the suggested 'poky' distro that 
yocto uses the guides still relate to OpenEmbedded as that is what Poky 
uses as it's base.

Regards,
Jack.
