<emphasis>Set Up the Build Environment:</emphasis>
Be sure you are set up to use BitBake in a shell.
See the
"<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_QS_URL;#qs-building-images'>Building Images</ulink>"
section in the Yocto Project Quick Start for steps that
show you how to set up the Yocto Project environment.
"<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#setting-up-the-development-host-to-use-the-yocto-project'>Setting Up the Development Host to Use the Yocto Project</ulink>"
section in the Yocto Project Development Manual for information
on how to get a build host ready that is either a native
Linux machine or a machine that uses CROPS.

<emphasis>Clone the <filename>poky</filename> Repository:</emphasis>
You need to have a local copy of the Yocto Project
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#source-directory'>Source Directory</ulink>
(i.e. a local <filename>poky</filename> repository).
See the
"<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#cloning-the-poky-repository'>Cloning the <filename>poky</filename> Repository</ulink>"
and possibly the
"<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#checking-out-by-branch-in-poky'>Checking Out by Branch in Poky</ulink>"
and
"<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#checkout-out-by-tag-in-poky'>Checking Out by Tag in Poky</ulink>"
sections all in the Yocto Project Development Manual for
information on how to clone the <filename>poky</filename>
repository and check out the appropriate branch for your work.

<emphasis>Initialize the Build Environment:</emphasis>
While in the root directory of the Source Directory (i.e.
<filename>poky</filename>), run the
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#structure-core-script'><filename>&OE_INIT_FILE;</filename></ulink>
environment setup script to define the OpenEmbedded
build environment on your build host.
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
$ source &OE_INIT_FILE;
</literallayout>
Among other things, the script creates the
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#build-directory'>Build Directory</ulink>,
which is <filename>build</filename> in this case
and is located in the
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#source-directory'>Source Directory</ulink>.
After the script runs, your current working directory
is set to the <filename>build</filename> directory.
<note>
For information on running a memory-resident
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#usingpoky-components-bitbake'>BitBake</ulink>,
see the
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;#structure-memres-core-script'><filename>oe-init-build-env-memres</filename></ulink>
setup script.
