Hi @ianatise ,
During a default build of our BSP reference images we setup and enable some DT overlays.
You should be able to build an image with an empty overlays.txt by unsetting TEZI_EXTERNAL_KERNEL_DEVICETREE_BOOT:use-mainline-bsp. The use-mainline-bsp override is used in the upstream version of BSP 6, which is the case for the Colibri iMX6.
To do this you can create a device-tree-overlays-mainline_git.bbappend file and reset the variable:
TEZI_EXTERNAL_KERNEL_DEVICETREE_BOOT:use-mainline-bsp = ""
You can check toradex-devicetree.bbclass for more details on how we process DT overlays during build:
If after putting the quiet kernel argument and following the plymouth article in our developer page you still get some level of console output you can try disabling CONFIG_DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION as suggested here:
Best regards,
Lucas Akira
