[meta-xilinx] Newbie woes

[Rich Wilson]

I'm running into a number of problems and questions, only some of which
have succumbed to days of reading and googling.

The following is for
poky-dora-10.0.1
MACHINE ?= "zedboard-zynq7"
and
bitbake core-image-minimal

A. Perhaps some of my problems are due to my distribution, so I need to
admit
to that:
WARNING: Host distribution "openSUSE-project-13.1" has not been validated
with this version of the build system; you may possibly experience
unexpected failures. It is recommended that you use a tested distribution.

B. The following warning was an error until I found a hint at
https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/meta-xilinx/2013-October/000219.html

WARNING: No recipes available for:

/home/rw/meta-xilinx/recipes-devtools/binutils/binutils-cross_2.24.bbappend

  /home/rw/meta-xilinx/recipes-connectivity/openssl/openssl_1.0.%.bbappend

It would be nice to fix this one way or another.

C. Where's the network?

root at zedboard-zynq7:/# cat /proc/net/dev

      0    0    0    0     0       0          0
root at zedboard-zynq7:/#

There are more, but I'll quit for now.
