Id like to build a custom beagleboard kernel from source and run Keon’s angstrom distribution on top of this custom kernel.
should i be applying koen patches to the following
git clone git://source.mvista.com/git/linux-omap-2.6.git
and if so where are those patches or are there any better suggestions for doing this?

Above linux-omap tree is the basis for kernel we currently work on. Once Tony (linux-omap maintainer) is back from vacation, we will send our beagle kernel patches to the linux-omap list for inclusion. Until then, there are several options how to get a kernel with most recent beagle patches:
- Use koen's OE build environment and build kernel with koen's patches within this
- Use above linux omap git an apply beagle patches manually. One list of patches you get e.g. from koen's OE git:
- Use Steve's git clone of linux-omap
http://www.sakoman.net/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=linux-omap-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/omap3
This is a clone of source.mvista.com/git/linux-omap-2.6.git with some beagle patches already applied.
The patches used by Koen and Steve might be different, though.

Where is Koen’s OE build environment located?
Basically, folllow :
http://wiki.openembedded.net/index.php/Getting_Started
with MACHINE ="beagleboard"
then bitbake console-image and beagleboard-demo-image
the results are in tmp/deploy/glibc/images/beagleboard (that might not
be quite right).

Dirk,
is it possible to send me those kernel patches you mentioned below, id like to apply them and build a beagle kernel with them.
In particular im trying to get alsa audio support working.
I tried one of sakoman’s kernel snapshots but arecord and aplay crash.
thanks Pete.
Pete,
I've finally been able to reproduce those alsa crashes. I'll be
working on finding & fixing the bug over the next day or two.
Sorry about the wasted time.

You should be able to get the patches Koen uses by using the blob &
raw links at the right side of the link I gave below
