When I got the board I received a CD with the images and sources on it. I 
set up an Ubuntu VM to build on and followed the instructions that came on 
the CD to build. I ran into some errors building. In the end I found the 
answer and wanted to post here in case someone else has the same problem.

The instructions give the following command for getting all the required 
packages:

    $ sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \
    zip curl zlib1g-dev libc6-dev lib32ncurses5-dev ia32-libs \
    x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev lib32readline5-dev lib32z-dev \
    libgl1-mesa-dev g++-multilib mingw32 tofrodos python-markdown \
    libxml2-utils xsltproc minicom tftpd uboot-mkimage expect

I found that this was missing 2 packages: libc6-dev-i386 and lib32z1-dev so 
I added them. This is the final command:

    $ sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \
    zip curl zlib1g-dev libc6-dev libc6-dev-i386 lib32ncurses5-dev 
ia32-libs \
    x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev lib32readline5-dev lib32z-dev lib32z1-dev \
    libgl1-mesa-dev g++-multilib mingw32 tofrodos python-markdown \
    libxml2-utils xsltproc minicom tftpd uboot-mkimage expect

I hope this helps someone else avoid the 2 days it took me to finally track 
this down. Now that I know to look for this kind of thing I hope it won't 
take me as long to figure out stuff like this.
