[Gumstix-users] Building Images

[Mark N. <m.a...@gm...>]

Was trying to follow http://www.sleepyrobot.com/?m=201211 and things
went fairly well.

Somehow, my builds/tmp directory got wiped.  Returning to square one,
I found I needed to rebuild x-loader and u-boot explicitly.  u-boot
fails with the following:


$ bitbake u-boot

I still have the original x-loader and u-boot images, but I suspect
this is the wrong route (or, I guess layer) for u-boot, correct?
Also, I note the current x-load/MLO is half the size of the one I have
on the SD card.
