I used the standard setup script, like this:
   % . /local/poky/oe-init-build-env /MY_NFS_VOLUME/build_dir

This will create a build tree on MY_NFS_VOLUME named 'build_dir'.  Then
I adjusted /MY_NFS_VOLUME/build_dir/conf/local.conf as needed and ran
bitbake...

Note: I NEVER build inside of my Poky/Yocto tree - always in a separate
build directory and quite often on a separate file system.

(sorry for any duplicate messages, I forgot to follow my own advice
and CC the list!)
