Re: [Gumstix-users] after "bitbake gumstix-basic-image"

[Blaine B. <bl...@cl...>]

Your conf file is not in your path (most likely) as you run the sudo (since sudo does not execute your .bash_profile settings, or whatever file it is you have setting up your environment to run bitbake).
... or your conf file is not readable if you have it on a strange partition or something like that.  Sounds like a configuration conflict with sudo?

I'd suggest to not run it with sudo or as root, but just as a regular user.
