Build steps

1. Source the environment with proper template settings, flavour being linux and target machine being qemuarm. Pay attention to how relative paths are constructed. The value of TEMPLATECONF is relative to the location of the build directory ./build-ohos-linux, that is going to be created after this step:

$ TEMPLATECONF=../sources/meta-ohos/flavours/linux . ./sources/poky/oe-init-build-env build-ohos-linux

2. You will find yourself in the newly created build directory. Call bitbake to build the image. For example, if you are using openharmony-image-base run the following command:

$ MACHINE=qemuarm bitbake openharmony-image-base

Once the image is done, you can run the Qemu usin the provided script wrapper:

$ MACHINE=qemuarm runqemu
