+KNOWN ISSUES
+============
+
+See bugzilla.yoctoproject.org
+
+382 - oprofile-server on PPC is built big-endian while oprofile-viewer 
+      on host system may built with little-endian, but oprofile-server
+      and oprofile-viewer are not implemented to correctly handle
+      conversion between host byte order and network byte order, so
+      oprofile-server and oprofile-viewer may run into connection issue.
+
+439 - No audio from the Blacksand board Front Channel auido jack.
+      Workaround: run the following cmd: 'amixer sset "Front" 30 on'
+
+467 - Issues building with Fedora 14, this distribution provided a version
+      of make that is not compatible with the Poky build system, the
+      workaround it to build a native version of make via the build system.
+      Users of Fedora 14 will need to do a 'bitbake make-native' before
+      running any other targets.
+
+429 - Building poky from scratch with /opt/poky in your path cause host
+      contamination issues, be sure that /opt/poky is not in your path
+      if building from scratch
+
+160 - The Emenlow Hardware gets stuck in the HW Reboot sequence and needs
+      to be power cycled.
+
+Zypper / RPM Issues
+489/490/491 - Due to some archetectual difference between Zypper and RPM5.0,
+      there are some compatibility issues that prevent zypper from
+      working correctly. 
+      Packages can still be managed with the rpm commands.
