Thanks for pointing me in the direction of this. I have cloned it and used
it as the basis of my distro, tweaked it a bit and it is starting to behave
how I want. There are a few anomalies that I haven't managed to figure out
yet...
Despite having VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_initscripts = "" the root file system still
contains /etc/rcX.d directories
On other embedded Linux projects that boot using Busybox init the
/etc/init.d directory contained the individual service start and kill files
e.g. S50-dropbear and K50-dropbear but I can't see how to make Yocto
populate this directory in that form.
Thoughts and guidance from anyone would be much appreciated!
Andy.
