Skip kernel building? (rootfs only mode)

Hello there! This is a really simple one but I haven't been able to find it yet. Since there are various configurations in the tasks/ folder, I would like to know if it would be possible to make one, in which a kernel image is not built? Reason being that I am trying to construct a rootfs for a Docker container. So, a kernel is not needed - just the headers. Is that possible? Kind regards, Ingwie

There is no solution for that, yet. You can create a new task like ADK_APPLIANCE_TOOLCHAIN and then look at mk/build.mk you will find a section which can be adapted.

With some small mods, yes. If you don't get it on your own, just tell me and I prepare a change. best regards Waldemar
