Looks like the low memory killer. Are you trying to build GNU Radio on
the BeagleBoard? If so, cross-compiling will save a lot of time in the
end.


We've been building gnuradio on the beagle because we can. Most of the 
time. For small changes it is "easier", after the initial build.

However, lately people have been running into the OOM killer. I'm told 
adding swap will help.

When I get back from Germany, one of my tasks is to set up a cross tool 
chain so we can easily develop code quickly. The idea is to have OE 
generete the cross sdk for us including all the supporting libraries.
