  1. The reference distribution in Yocto is called Poky. So it’s not Ubuntu, CentOS or something like that. It’s Poky. And if you customize it, you’ll have your very own distribution.

    See https://www.yoctoproject.org/software-overview/reference-distribution/.

  2. It’s a Yocto custom embedded Linux.

    You have to state every tool you would want the image to have. For example, if you want apt-get, you will need to update local.conf with:

    EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES += " package-management "
