That comment suggests you haven't spent any quality time fighting angstroms quirks. IMHO, angstrom itself is "'dependency hell' in one easy lesson". However, if you want clarity, try reading this: http://beagleboard.org/blog/2014-01-04-happy-new-year/ As you're a long time linux user, the first thing you're going to notice is that you simply can't just grab another distro and expect everything to work the way you can in the x86 world. The Arm/embedded world simply isn't there yet. For the BBB what you end up doing is taking Robert Nelsons kernel build and layering a mostly generic armv7 compiled distro on top. Robert does a decent job with the kernel, so this mostly just works for now. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
