yocto project used beaglebone black as one of its reference boards so you can find a default reference yocto BSP for it. Secondly, meta-ti is TI BSP layer which also supports beaglebone black since the board is from TI > > Also when I clone say poky should I checkout the branch or a specific tag? > you can use git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky -b pyro for getting latest stable release. > It's not clear to me the best way start with a piece of hardware then > determine the correct layers. I would suggest to do a bit more investigation as to what you need. meanwhile you can build yocto reference BSP and play with it. There are many packages that meta-ti would have that you might need depending upon what you plan to do. > > Thanks. > > > -- > _______________________________________________ > yocto mailing list > yocto@yoctoproject.org > https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto > -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
