I had a look at openvario-recovery-image.bb and openvario-recovery-initramfs.bb and ... I'm ... confused. None of this appears to make sense.

Hmmm ... this was a very early stage ...

The idea behind all this recovery stuff was a single file which can be booted from an USB stick just for updating the Openvario. So we used the method of ITB file. Packing kernel + DTB + initramfs into one file. The problem was, that the kernel linux-sunxi 3.4 had no support for DTB. Therefore i packed all the image building stuff into the recipe ...

Think we this needs really a redesign ;-) But i think the idea with the ITB is still a good one !

Would it make sense, to make a own class for this ITB build beside the sd-img class for the SDCard image ??
