Scott Rifenbark fe11d654b2 documentation/dev-manual/dev-manual-kernel-appendix.xml: Fixes to examples
Jim Abernathy pointed out an area where the bitbake command is
run from the top-level poky directory.  This is incorrect and the
user should run this from the build directory.  I changed the
instance so that the example instructs the user to either run the
environment setup script first, which would place him into the
build directory.  I also reinforced it by adding supporting text
saying that you should run the bitbake command from the build
directory.

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

OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with DISTRO = "") and contains only emulated machine support.
