- The OpenEmbedded build process supports several types of images to satisfy different needs.
- When you issue the <code class="filename">bitbake</code> command you provide a &#8220;top-level&#8221; recipe
- that essentially begins the build for the type of image you want.

-<h3 class="title">Note</h3>
- Building an image without GNU General Public License Version 3 (GPLv3) components
- is only supported for minimal and base images.
- Furthermore, if you are going to build an image using non-GPLv3 components,
- you must make the following changes in the <code class="filename">local.conf</code> file
- before using the BitBake command to build the minimal or base image:
- <pre class="literallayout">
- 1. Comment out the EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES line
- 2. Set INCOMPATIBLE_LICENSE = "GPLv3"
- </pre>
-</div>
-<p>
- From within the <code class="filename">poky</code> Git repository, use the following command to list
- the supported images:
- </p>
-<pre class="literallayout">
- $ ls meta*/recipes*/images/*.bb
- </pre>
-<p>
- These recipes reside in the <code class="filename">meta/recipes-core/images</code>,
- <code class="filename">meta/recipes-extended/images</code>,
- <code class="filename">meta/recipes-graphics/images</code>, and
- <code class="filename">meta/recipes-sato/images</code> directories
- within the <a class="link" href="../dev-manual/source-directory.html" target="_self">source directory</a>.
- Although the recipe names are somewhat explanatory, here is a list that describes them:

-<h3 class="title">Tip</h3>
- From the Yocto Project release 1.1 onwards, <code class="filename">-live</code> and
- <code class="filename">-directdisk</code> images have been replaced by a "live"
- option in <code class="filename">IMAGE_FSTYPES</code> that will work with any image to produce an
- image file that can be
- copied directly to a CD or USB device and run as is.
- To build a live image, simply add
- "live" to <code class="filename">IMAGE_FSTYPES</code> within the <code class="filename">local.conf</code>
- file or wherever appropriate and then build the desired image as normal.
