Image for beagleboard xm

Hi all,
I’m a newbie to all linux stuff… so I need some help…
I’ve compiled the u-boot and kernel using this tutorial:
http://beagleboard.org/linux

I was wondering how to change the lines:

~/kernel/kernel$ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi- uImage-dtb.am335x-bone
~/kernel/kernel$ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi- uImage-dtb.am335x-boneblack

to fit my beagleboard xM? and what does is compile? I mean the uImage was already compiled…

I also made a file system using Narcissus.

so I wanted to know how to prepare the SD-card? I thought about using this tutorial:
http://treyweaver.blogspot.co.il/2010/10/installing-angstrom-on-beagleboard-xm.html

but there they are using all images from Narcissus… will it work? how do I load the modules I compiled?

Thanks!
Aline.

Hi again,

I found that to fit my beagleboard i’ll have to:

/kernel/kernel$ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi- uImage-dtb.omap3-beagle



so I've compiles the uImage-dtb, but I don't know where to put it in the SD card, can anyone help? 

like I asked before - how to prepare the SD please?




Thanks again.. :)

Hi,

I’d rather use Angstrom because it is recommended with the beagle board…
Does anyone know how to create the SD with the images compiled with http://beagleboard.org/linux ?
