Hi there, We’re currently experimenting with the Yocto Project (Dunfell branch) for our Raspberry Pi 4s along with Mender, which connect to the internet. We add `dhcpcd` to our `CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL_append` line which comes from openembedded/meta-networking in our `conf/local.conf` file, and it’ll build successfully however upon flashing the .uefiimg to an SD card and running it, poky gets stuck with a load of `Failed to read symlink, ignoring: No such file or directory`, on links such as: `runlevel4, hostname1.service, locale1.service, umount.target, sockets.target, default.target`, etc. It then throws `Failed to load rescue target. Freezing execution` and completely stops. We’ve also tried removing the line (and purging the cache and tmp directories) however that didn’t solve the issue either. Any ideas? ---

Aside from switching to Yocto Kirkstone, it seems DD must’ve been leaving some data behind from prior images, as I initially wasn’t fully wiping the card before applying a new image to it. I’ve since started doing this and haven’t had any issues since. Kind of an accidental gloss-over on my part 😅
