Hi All:
I recently bought a Overo Fire GumStix board which has an OMAP3530 on Chestnut43 motherboard. I also
built a basic console image after facing problems which I resolved using
answers in this forum. Now, I have come to the following as the plan
for future development.
1. Create a buildroot image
2. Flash it to the device
3. Cross
compile the usr program i.e. my programs
4. Transfer the exe to
GumStix board and run the program.
Q1. Is this the right way of
doing things? Has anybody tried this kind of a thing?
Q2. I was trying to build the buildroot image but it was failing for a
lot of files which it was looking for in the dl/ directory. I found all
those and ran the build again. I got the following error and could not
resolve this.

Can someone help me in knowing where I am going wrong? Any help is appreciated.
