Here's an update. Sorry I didn't elaborate fully on the last email. What I was trying to do is start working with the FSL 1.1.0 SDK kernel, the recipe of which doens't exist in meta-fsl-arm/danny. Probably because danny is a ~stable~ branch. It lives in master. I spent some time figuring out that danny didn't have the kernel and master did.
So, how to go about getting master instead of danny? Well, I tried git checkout master in sources/meta-fsl-arm - no luck there. I hadn't made any uncommited mods before. The reason 'seems' to be that there is no branch information in that git repository. That doesn't really make sense to me, but I didn't spend the time to figure it out either. Then, I figured I would hack the .repo/manifests.xml file and use revision="master" for meta-fsl-arm. That didn't work either because I then spent a lot of time chasing oe layer dependencies. The build would fail complaining that it couldn't find recipes for such and such .bbappend files. So, I was getting a ~little~ frustrated until I discovered that Otavio and the smart people on this list would probably have a repo default.xml for master the same as they have for danny because there has to be a better of doing this than I was going about doing it. That master default.xml that you get in fsl-community-bsp-platform checks out the right versions of the repositories (all are master, when I was making the mistake of trying to use a danny/master mix). Once I had that information, all I did was repo init -u <url to fsl-community-bsp-platform> -b master. So, I'm good now. Thanks for the comments.
