From the instructions for comedi, "you will need to havea correctly configured Linux kernel source tree". I have built comedi on many platforms without trouble but I'm completely lost in Angstrom - I have the kernel source (2.6.29 from kernel.org) but I don't know where to find the config files. I have done this on and x86 host: http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/building-angstrom I don't fancy building comedi using bitbake because I have not the slightest idea how to adapt it to this purpose. The easiest thing seems to me is to find the correctly configures kernel source and config files and install them on the beagleboard then build comedi locally. Any advice? overwhelmed and stuck here.
