This isn't a stupid question--it's very easy to make mistakes with this
stuff and it can be quite difficult to figure out what you did wrong.
The one thing I noticed is that you config'd your system for beagleboard
but you should have said "beaglebone" instead. I tried to find a list
of the valid machine types when using oebb.sh but I couldn't find one.
However, I did see "beaglebone" being used on the following page:
http://hipstercircuits.com/?p=245
He also talks about doing kernel builds specifically for beaglebone so
you may find it useful as well. (You should also source the
~/.oe/environment-angstromv2012.05 script, then you can type "bitbake
..." directly without the other garbage.)
Good luck!

Hi all,
First of all: I'm new to angstrom so please bare with me if I make
stupid questions.
I'm trying to build angstrom kernel sources for a Beagle Bone board
with LCD7 cape support.
So far, I was using latest Texas Instruments PSP kernel sources, but
LCD7 cape is not supported there.
I got the sources from git and, according to the README file, I'm doing
$ MACHINE=beagleboard ./oebb.sh config beagleboard
$ MACHINE=beagleboard ./oebb.sh bitbake virtual/kernel
The first problem is this started doing tons of things, where I only
want the kernel sources.
The second problem is this has been running for 10 hours or so and now
it seems to be stuck here:

Am I doing anything wrong? What's the best procedure to get and build
*only* the kernel sources for the BeagleBone?
Also notice I'm having some issues with the LCD7 cape, so perhaps it
would be only necessary if someone
could point me out where could I get the most updated patch to support it.
Thanks a lot in advance, and I hope this isn't a stupid question!
