The evb help text suggests a few different targets. I added them
because I thought it made sense for building a basic image for booting
on an EVB, where the host is probably not present.

Cédric reported a similar issue with the password. In the past I
couldn't reproduce, but today I could with core-image-minimal. I
suspect there's a bug where some settings don't trigger a rebuild of
the required components, as I had trouble settling on a setup that
gave me a working password.

I did try adding this to build/evb-ast2600/conf/local.conf:

EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES = "serial-autologin-root"

Which logged me in automatically.

The yocto docs also suggests this method:

https://docs.yoctoproject.org/ref-manual/classes.html#ref-classes-extrausers

We should probably add a default password to the evb layer for the
non-phosphor targets. I wasn't sure how to pull in just that
configuration from meta-phospor on it's own.

Cheers,

Joel
