Thanks for the info. As I'm very new to Yocto, I'd not know how to create local.conf to build for panda, even knowing that the kernel will support pandaboard. How would I go about configuring Yocto to build for panda? If you can point me to some documentation showing how to do it, I'd appreciate it.
I'm just learning yocto, in my spare time, and just went through the quick start guide to build for x86qemu image and skimmed through the development manual. But I'm not too sure how to go about configuring for pandaboard. I figured, I can build for beagle board and then modify config to make it work for panda. However, I'm having build issue when trying to build for beagle board. If there is already an existing pandaboard config, I'd like to try it. Thank you.
