Create a new grub-efi.bbclass and integrate it into bootimg alongside the syslinux support. This new class uses the output from the grub-efi-native recipe. Thanks goes to Josef Ahmad <josef.ahmad@intel.com> for the original build_grub_cfg() routine. The EFI features are only added to the image if MACHINE_FEATURES contains "efi". The resulting images are therefor either legacy boot only (like they were originally) or legacy boot and EFI boot. A new "dummy.bbclass" was added to allow for the conditional include of grub-efi. This makes it so if efi support is not to be built in, we don't spend time building grub-efi-native just because the include adds the dependency. There is a bug in the mkdosfs tool from the dosfstools package which causes it to crash when the directory passed with the -d parameter contains sub-directories. An /EFI/BOOT directory is required for a proper EFI installation. Until it is fixed, we install to the top level directory for the hddimg.

Poky
====
Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged
build system and development environment. It features support for building
customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images
featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports
cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a
standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.
Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports
is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added
in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as
BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information
e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a
reference manual which can be found at:
http://yoctoproject.org/community/documentation
