Not at all.
My first ever EL image was built on an ubuntu VM using yocto.
Ensure to allocate more processor cores for the VM and you’re good to go.
Nice. Have you used dev containers to build images?
No, I haven’t. What are those?
Better explained : https://containers.dev/
Dev containers are lightweight, pre-configured development environments ensuring consistent tools and dependencies across projects.
I was thinking it would be great to use them for something like Embedded Linux and thought someone might have already done it.
Ok, thanks.
I will look at this later.
While I haven’t used dev containers, I have often used straight VirtualBox VMs and also standard Docker containers.
There is also the CROPS Poky Container that is setup to allow you to run BitBake https://github.com/crops/poky-container
You can also use WSL2 on Windows
