Something custom ? Or have you added machine compatibility to another

How would I see which kernel recipe is used?
This is where my brute force techniques probably break down. I just
do a 'bitbake virtual/kernel' and you'll see it display which
recipe is being built.
If you haven't added compatibility for your new machine to any
recipe, I'm betting that linux-dummy is used.
I did not customize anything except for aforementioned steps, simply
copied beaglebone.conf to astro.conf in the same directory. Also I did
not touch any kernel recipes (kernel is built externally), maybe that's
what's missing?
It is plausible. But in theory, linux-dummy should still provide
what you need (but since it doesn't build anything, there is
no abi .. and no modules can be built against it) .. so the
error isn't graceful.

I encountered the same error ("ERROR: No kernel-abiversion file found
(build/tmp/sysroots/{machinename}/pkgdata/kernel-depmod/kernel-abiversion),
cannot run depmod, aborting") after porting my system from poky-daisy to
poky-fido. My machine config sets PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel =
"linux-dummy", as we currently use a monolithic out-of-tree 2.6 kernel.
It's a clean fido checkout, and I tried trashing tmp and rebuilding
everything to no effect.
Based on
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/classes/image.bbcl
ass I have worked around this by setting:
USE_DEPMOD = "0"
in my image configuration. This works, and allows the root file system to
be built.
Is it a bug that depmod is not skipped automatically when linux-dummy is
specified? Am I risking death and destruction by overriding it? (We don't
have any kernel modules.)
See Saul's patch from about 33 minutes ago:
[OE-core] [PATCH][master&fido] image.bbclass: Disable USE_DEPMOD for the
dummy kernel
