[Openembedded-users] how to add custom kernel module to rootfs

[Mats Kärrman]

Hi Kaushal,

Have you added your driver as a patch to the kernel build?
In that case all drivers built as modules are stored in the deploy folder as something like "modules-2.6.X-rX-machine.tgz".
If IMAGE_INSTALL in the image recipe contains "kernel_modules" then all those modules are added to the resulting image.

Hi,

Could someone please help me with this query:

I have added a custom driver into my kernel and it builds fine. It also creates its ipk package file.

How to ensure that it installs in the rootfs. I am using minimal-image.bb<http://minimal-image.bb> to create rootfs.

Is there a package list used by do_rootfs where I can add this ipk or something?

Thanks,
Kaushal
