I'm a newbie and this is my first post. I just got started with building my first HelloWorld style app to test the cross-compile capabilities of Eclipse/CDT, The app compiles successfully and generate the expected HelloBeagle.elf executable. However, when I transfer it to my beagle and attempt to run, I get an "Illegal instruction" error.
I've watched every video I could find (Thanks Derek Malloy) and I still can't find the reason for the error. Obviously it's not generating the right code base, but the build output does show that it it aimed for the cortex-a8 processor which I believe is correct for the beaglebone black. I would appreciate any suggestions or ideas!!
