Image was build on host distribution Ubuntu 14.04, there was a warning message indicate this during bitbake.
The highest Kernel Supported version for Ubuntu 14.04 Distribution is up to v4.4 (Ubuntu 14.04.5).
This can be source from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Support.
The kernel image recipe add as core-image-minimal was Kernel version 4.17.0-rc5 which was 3 weeks ago releases by kernel.org. Even the latest Distribution for 18.04 supports kernel up to v4.15 only.

My recommendation would be to use Kernel Yocto supported and rebuild the core-image-minimal a version up (16.04) on Host Distribution
