[Angstrom-devel] What target do I build to bitbake the BeagleBone Black eMMC image from source?

2014-05-08 Thread Bob Feretich
I am trying to build the exact image that ships with the current BeagleBone Black from source. I have built the cloud9-gnome-image successfully, but... * it results in a zImage rather than a uImage. The eMMC contains a uImage. (This is the first hint that something is wrong.) I converted the

I generally do my kernel builds in 3 steps (steps 3-5). (5 steps for the first time) The kernel is built when Angstrom builds, but sources are deleted. I like the source available for examination and want to be able to easily reconfigure the kernel. 1. bitbake -c clean virtual/kernel
