  $ exit

Build the beaglebone

Dependencies

http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/OEandYourDistro#Mandatory_packages

sudo apt-get install sed wget cvs subversion git-core coreutils \
    unzip texi2html texinfo docbook-utils \
   gawk python-pysqlite2 diffstat help2man make gcc build-essential g++ \
   desktop-file-utils chrpath

Build

http://downloads.angstrom-distribution.org/demo/beaglebone/

git clone git://github.com/Angstrom-distribution/setup-scripts.git
cd setup-scripts
./oebb.sh config beaglebone
MACHINE=beaglebone ./oebb.sh bitbake systemd-image

If you want other images, you can check the following folder:
peter@peter-VirtualBox:setup-scripts$ ls sources/meta-angstrom/recipes-images/angstrom/
console-base-image.bb development-gnome-image.bb hardware-bringup-image.bb systemd-image.bb
console-image.bb efl-nodm-image.bb systemd-gnome-image.bb xfce-nm-image.bb

Unpack to SD card

After building, MLO, u-boot.img, uImage, rootfs can be found under following folder:
build/tmp-angstrom_v2012_12-eglibc/deploy/images/beaglebone/
SD card should be 2 partitions:
1st partition is in VFAT format
2nd partition is in EXT4 format
You can create these 2 partitions by the tools you prefer.
Or use this script
http://downloads.angstrom-distribution.org/demo/beaglebone/mkcard.txt
/bin/bash mkcard.txt /dev/sdX

copy MLO, u-boot.img to 1st partition
unzip rootfs to 2nd partition
suppose you have mounted 2nd partition to /mnt/rootfs

sudo tar -xzf Angstrom-systemd-image-eglibc-ipk-v2012.12-beaglebone.rootfs.tar.gz -C /mnt/rootfs

Enjoy your beaglebone.
