your version is meta-ti           = "master:7bc112911d856962d2f477

a6ba60e08907141433"

What command did you use to get meta-ti?
I used

git clone *https://github.com/Angstrom-distribution/meta-ti.git*

This tree is probably very out of date.  Use git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-ti

Did you have to use an initrd file?

No - Yocto boot does not normally use such a setup

Do you have the text you used for your boot.scr?

I used nothing - the U-Boot defaults work fine.

Did you use ext3 or ext4 for you linux partition?

ext3 but ext4 should work as well

I build my SD card using the attached scripts (locally honed) on both
Fedora 16 & Ubuntu 12.10

What does
/home/vidal/POKY/build122912_panda/poky/meta-ti/recipes-kernel/linux/
linux-ti33x-psp_3.2.bb have do with the build?
I thought
/home/vidal/POKY/build122912_panda/poky/meta-ti/recipes-kernel/linux/
linux-omap4_3.1.0.bb was being used.
   As always any and all help will be appreciated.

Those are out of date.  The current tree will use 
meta-ti/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-omap4_3.4.bb

Hello,
I am still trying to get the pandaboard to boot with meta-ti and yocto.
I built the kernel on a Fedora17 pandaboard,  This took appoximately 9
hrs.
The following are the steps that I have taken.  What needs to set to have
the kernel display the process as it is booting?
This is far as get with Angstrom and meta-ti with Yocto.
Basic steps
fetch the kernel
checkout ti-ubuntu-3.1.0-1282.11
configure the kernel
make
change zImage to uImage with mkimage
copy files to SD card
   As always any and all help will be appreciated.

I'm a bit confused here as to the problem.  I just built Poky/Yocto for the
PandaBoard using meta-ti (which is what you claim to want).  This used this
configuration:

Build Configuration:
BB_VERSION        = "1.17.0"
BUILD_SYS         = "i686-linux"
NATIVELSBSTRING   = "Unknown"
TARGET_SYS        = "arm-amltd-linux-gnueabi"
MACHINE           = "pandaboard"
DISTRO            = "yocto"
DISTRO_VERSION    = "1.3+snapshot-20130104"
TUNE_FEATURES     = "armv7a vfp neon"
TARGET_FPU        = "vfp-neon"
meta-yocto
meta              = "master:**09359e6ec00901abfe49157f1f9730**117b4d284b"
meta-ti           = "master:**7bc112911d856962d2f477a6ba60e0**8907141433"

The result built a Linux 3.4.11 kernel which booted to a console prompt
(I only built a console based image).  Note: the only thing special in
my local.conf was
   MACHINE="pandaboard"
   BBMASK ?= ".*/meta-ti/recipes-(misc|bsp/**formfactor|graphics/mesa)/"

Why are your results different?

My angstrom build should be done shortly. May this will give a tar.vz2
file so I can test the kernel that I get above in
~/angstrom/setup-scripts/**build/tmp-angstrom_v2012_05-**
eglibc/deploy/images/**pandaboard/

If you change the kernel version on that recipe it will build the
image
with that kernel, AFAICT.

Exactly what do you mean?  Did you actually change the recipe (i.e.
edit
the file
mentioned above)?  Or did you try to select that kernel via some other
means?  If
so, how?

If you'll be more explicit about how you are trying to get this
alternate
kernel to be used, we can help figure out why it's not working for you.



    The kernel and the modules [package] have to match or else you'll

have

problems.

They do. I've included the kernel-modules in my recipes.

query: why isn't this discussion on the meta-ti list where the
supporters
of this recipe (and layer) hang out?
