Can the xM Rev C demo images be recreated via OpenEmbedded/BitBake?

I'd like to regenerate the Angstrom demo images (MLO, U-Boot, Kernel,
Root FS), which seem to work just fine on the xM rev C, mostly for the
experience. Is there a specific version of Angstrom I need to use to
do this? How about a specific OE/bitbake recipe? So far I haven't had
much luck. Twelve hours and thirty gigabytes later, either the result
doesn't quite work 100%, or the build itself fails.

BTW, when I use CodeSourcery arm-2011.03, I get an "internal compiler
error"; arm-2010q1, which I've used on other BB-related projects like
Android Froyo, seems to work fine.

I really like the xM rev C, having replaced my beloved C4+Zippy2, but
I don't seem smart enough to suss out the SW for it.

Thanks for any pointers!

Go to the angstrom site, click 'developers' and follow the instructions there.

What I'm really looking for are the source patches required to support
the ULCD7 touch-panel display that is (finally!) shipping for the BB-
xM. I want to merge these changes into TI's Android 2.3.4 code. It is
said that the ULCD7 is supported by the 'latest' Angstrom build.

Well, when I look at the list of devices supported by Angstrom, it
appears the device list is taken from OpenEmbedded's list of
{device}.conf files and there is no beagleboardxm.config. The OE
beagleboard.conf dates from 2009, so does not look like a
configuration file for BeagleBoard-xM.

Am I mistaken? Or have I just not found the config file that exists
somewhere to support the BB-xM?

Thanks for what help you can provide to find the ULCD7 patches or
Angstrom BB-xm config file.

You are, all the beagleboard are supported from that one beagleboard.conf you found.

Have a look at:
