Dear List,
Is it possible to build an Angstrom rootfs without building x-load, u-boot
and kernel image?
We have a new development that uses an AM3517 based unit.
The SDK comes with pre-patched source code for x-load, u-boot and kernel.
There are also compiled binary images.
To get things working quickly I'd like to build a rootfs with our software
and dependent packages and use the supplied binaries during installation.
Would setting ASSUME_PROVIDED in the machine BSP achieve this?
Cheers Mike.

How are you going to handle the kernel modules?
Build something close and ignore the packages you do not need :)
