Alternatively, source files can be picked up using
a glob pattern.
In this case, the destination file
will have the same name as the base name of the source file
path.
To install files into a directory within the

Here are two examples:
<literallayout class="monospaced">
IMAGE_BOOT_FILES = "bcm2835-bootfiles/*"
IMAGE_BOOT_FILES = "bcm2835-bootfiles/*;boot/"
</literallayout>
The first example installs all files from

into the root of the target partition.
The second example installs the same files into a
<filename>boot</filename> directory within the
target partition.
