Previously...
I only switched the branch of setup-scripts to
angstrom-v2012.12-yocto1.3. Because in master "bitbake systemd-image
-c populate_sdk" doesn't work at all (as the populate_sdk thingy came
in yocto 1.2+).
...snip...
I pull the setup-scripts from github and execute the following:

$ git clone git://github.com/Angstrom-distribution/setup-scripts.git
$ cd setup-scripts
$ MACHINE=beaglebone ./oebb.sh config beaglebone
$ MACHINE=beaglebone ./oebb.sh bitbake systemd-image

Point of information: the above procedure should give you "angstrom-v2012.05-yocto1.2" whereas Bjorn is trying to use "angstrom-v2012.12-yocto1.3". I don't think this later version is formally released yet? (BTW--I found this in my sources/layers.txt file.)

Regarding the 2012.12 release, I saw on one of the myriad sites/pages/wikis I've reviewed recently that a "meta-beagleboard" will (or probably will) be introduced. The page mentioned this in conjunction with audio drivers and there's something about it not being ready yet, blah blah blah. The point is that I wonder if the release is ready for prime time yet and if something fancy like populate_sdk is sufficiently fleshed out?


As for dealing with SDK's, this is something I've been trying to wrap my head around for a while. I've come across the Arago project (also as meta-arago) and the Sitara SDK--actually, any number of different TI SDKs. I've been wondering how the meta-arago is supposed to tie-in with meta-angstrom but haven't seen anyone who says it can be done. I also don't understand how the Sitara SDK is supposed to work here since it provides its own toolchain and doesn't seem to have a particular association with a Linux release/distribution.

I assume, Bjorn, that all you want to do is build new code using the same headers, compilers, etc. as was used to build Angstrom...is that right? This is what I'd like to do, myself, but so far I haven't quite figured that out. I did do a sample program using the Sitara SDK but haven't tried anything too ambitious yet.

Just trying to make sense of all this stuff....
