Building Linux kernel

Hello,

Is bitbake virtual/kernel the "right" way to get the same kernel as in
images built with Narcissus? I started off Angstrom-Beagleboard-demo-
image-glibc-ipk-2011.1 rootfs then did opkg install kernel-
image-2.6.32 to get kernel 2.6.32-r100 (upgrade from r98). I see that
md5 checksum of uImage-2.6.32 differs from the one built with bitbake.
I use MACHINE="beagleboard" and DISTRO="angstrom-2008.1" as my
OpenEmbedded configuration. Are there any other code or configuration
differences that I should be aware of?

Regards,
Marius.

Now I am really ashamed of myself. There are host machine information,
timestamps and whatnot that could change everytime you rebuild the
kernel. I will just assume that they are both the same :slight_smile:
