I can't comment on that since I didn't try
http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/Meego_on_the_Beagle

It will be better for you to go from scratch since you won't be able
to get the UI up on Devkit8000 with the pre-built images available for
BeagleBoard from here http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/Meego_on_the_Beagle
because SGX(OpenGL ES) will not take off out of the box.

In case you have to go with the pre-built images, you need to remove
the previous SGX installation(modules + init script + libraries) and
build the fresh SGX modules for Devkit8000 kernel and install them in
your Rootfs along with the libraries.
