I'm not at all sure where you've read that, but it's very strange combination 
and is incorrect.

First, ti2020.00 wasn't even a production release, but it was made out of Zeus 
branch, i.e. 3.0 Yocto release.
Second, yocto-3.2 release corresponds to Gatesgarth and meta-ti has no support 
for it.

The best approach is to see where the latest release tags are being made in 
meta-ti, and/or stick to LTS releases of Yocto. In both cases that would be 
Dunfell. You might want to pin down meta-ti to 07.03.00.005 tag for now...
