I'm trying to build a module for beagleboard xm for WiFi rtl8192cu on
ubuntu machine, but compile fails with the following
error.

According to the manual http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/building-angstrom
I received virtual / kernel and systemd-gnome-image.
This directory does not have a file modpost. There modpost.h,
modpost.c and others. Does anyone know how to get it?

beagleboard-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/linux-3.0.17-r115b/git' is empty

Try removing this line from conf/local.conf
   INHERIT += "rm_work"

Then rebuild your kernel
   % bitbake virtual/kernel -c cleansstate
   % bitbake virtual/kernel

Then you should be able to build the module/package you are having trouble with
