successful loading the default FS and then add in my other packages.

I prefer to do the following:

make defconfig
make

and ensure that builds. That gives you a known starting place that
most other people also start from. This starting place includes all of
the support necessary to use the ethernet and/or wifistix and most of
the gumstix peripherals.

Then make your tweaks. If you remove something, then you'll generally
need to do:

rm -rf build_arm_nofpu/root

before doing the make.
