building petalinux

Question

I am running into errors building peta-linux. I will describe my steps bellow

so I source the make_minized_petalinux.tcl file to create a Vivado project. Once the project is complete, I export the HDF file.

I then create an empty petalinux project and configure it with the HDF file from the Vivado project.

After configuring the project, I run petalinux-build. After a few minutes, I get an error.

ERROR: Task (/home/jacob/Xilinx/petalinux_20174/components/yocto/source/arm/layers/meta-xilinx-tools/recipes-bsp/device-tree/device-tree-generation_git.bb:do_configure) failed with exit code '1'

The terminal mentions a log file and when I open up the log file, there is a critical warning that the board_part definiton was not found for em.avnet.com:minized:part0:1.2.

I presume this is what caused the error.

Any tips on what I am doing wrong in my work flow?

After a little more googling of my problem, I was able to figure out the problem. The solution was actually documented in a Xilinx answer record.

I guess I didn't see any mention of this in other documents, but for other people running into a problem building petalinux for the minized, I'll post the link to the solution below.
