[poky] Using RPM with Poky

[Gary Thomas]

I'm trying to do some testing with Poky on an atom-PC.  I thought
I'd try with a minimal system and then add pieces I need.  Sadly,
I've run aground doing this.  I've built a couple of images with
varying results:
   poky-image-minimal-live - boots on my box
   poky-image-sato-live - boots, but fails to find X display, then hangs (*)

There seem to be no RPM tools on the minimal image.  Did I miss something?
On my old, ipk based system, I'd build up a minimal image then use opkg
to install additional packages.  How do I do that with the RPM based
images?  I've checked the documentation and there's basically nothing
about this, unless I looked in the wrong place.

Any ideas or pointers gladly accepted.  Thanks

(*) I had success with this in the past when I booted with MACHINE=emenlow
but that hardware isn't in the primary list.
