It is true that the beagleboard is a hardware reference board in the
yocto consolidated kernel tree and meta-yocto layers. That means that
it gets the yocto standard QA builds and boot testing.

That being said, if you are looking for the latest + specific features
then you've been pointed in a good direction .. meta-ti will meet your
needs.

As for disentangling and reducing questions in this area .. rest assured,
we are working on it.

Cheers,
