[poky] [ Error ] Could not locate BSP definition witch custom machine.conf

[AshishKumar Mishra]

Hi Bruce ,

Can you please let me know which all file's you meant by  " BSP definition
file"
I think i am missing some standard aspect here.
I was considering  machine.conf file as BSP definition file .

Going through the thread you asked , seems like i have to read a few times
to get clear understanding of discussion there due my limited knowledge as
of now.

Thanks a lot for your valuable input , error seems to be resolved .

Thanks
Ashish
