TI AM335x Sitara SDK 7.00 bitbake target?

I wonder in arago project which target is used to build the TI sitara sdk prebuilt image? specifically, AM335x version 7.00, the official release listed on download page. I guess it's arago-base-tisdk-image? or arago-core-tisdk-image?

One more question: which targets are more stable, tested, and recommended for developers used as the starting point for production? should I go with the image target prefixed with arago only and using others just for experimental purpose?

THANKS

    Hi,

    Here is what I can answer of your questions.

    Regarding the first set of questions:

    Check the following guide: http://aragoproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Setting_Up_Build_Environment&redirect=no

    The most complete image is built using the arago-core-tisdk-image.

    As for the second part of your questions:

    All of the images should be tested, the listed ones are separate specific recipes. You should be able to build each one of the & integrate it within your filesystem.

    Hope this helps.

    Best Regards,
    Yordan

    Thank you very much sir. Now I had read a few document pages and have some shallow knowledge about how bitbake system works.

    I have also successfully re-buit the arago-base-tisdk-image without too much trouble (though lots of QA Issue warnings from external-linaro-toolchain, but supposed to be harmless). The build system is sophisticated. Arago target uses an incremental way to divide packages into package groups and composite image by combining several groups. Very neat and convenient.

    I'll dig further. Thanks again.
