Jack,

Have you or the customer studied the Yocto Mega Manual and referred to the this section to create a new machine?

https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/latest/mega-manual/mega-manual.html#platdev-newmachine

Please note that recipes on meta-ti and meta-arago are all referencing the existing MACHINE names and if you create a new machine, then it may break compatibility with some dependencies. So it will have to be done with caution and understanding.

Regards

Karthik
