Thank you I've been trying out this option. Actually I started this project with your custom images, so thumbs up ;)
I've opted for a native compile on the BBxm with your scripts (on an additional SD card to have enough space). When git fetches from https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable and tags, e.g.: * [new tag] v3.9.9 -> v3.9.9 I get: error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by checkout: tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/configs/rcu/v3.12/P7-4-T-NH-SD-SMP-HP Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can switch branches. Aborting I'm not very familiar with git, but I'll try to follow the script step by step to find this out. However if you have an insight or quick suggestion please let me know. Also: when I first tried the script, on the root file system microSD the compile process started and I didn't have git problems. I had to stop unfortunately, since the uSD space was almost over. I'm wondering whether I screwed up something with git.
