Building 'helloword' does not create a useful embedded environment, i.e. you can't run it on target/embedded hardware directly. IIRC you are trying to deploy (keyword!) this on an OMAP platform. This means that you'll need to build something more substantial that has all the base pieces required to get Linux running on that hardware. I'd suggest that you try building something like 'console-image' This *will* create files in the tmp/deploy/... tree that you've been told to use. Once you figure out how to get those files onto your target and run them, then you can experiment with adding additional packages, etc. -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Gary Thomas | Consulting for the MLB Associates | Embedded world ------------------------------------------------------------
