I've built a minimal Linux for my BeagleBoard xM (Rev C) using the Yocto project build appliance, and installed it on a uSD card following their instructions.
It works (Yay!), has a small footprint and boots really fast which is what I want. I used a pretty minimal build recipe with this in mind.
It gives lots of encouraging messages about loading drivers for the USB devices. However, when I log in, there is no ethernet interface, and nothing else on the USB seems to work. I've tried plugging in a USB memory stick but it's not recognized (nothing appears in log shown by "dmesg"). I don't get anything on the display, either - I am interacting over the serial port console.
I'm using the u-boot binary built by Yocto, and loading the device table (dtb file) and kernel image from the same source. However, I noticed that the (working) Debian image I have also includes an "initrd" image. Borrowing from the Debian boot environment, I was able to load that initrd (actually "uInitrd", the uboot image version?) but I still don't see the USB devices.
Am I missing something? Do I need to put something in my Yocto build, or should it already know about the hardware? Given that I picked the "beagleboard" option, I assumed it knew what to put in. Do I even need an "initrd"? According to the docs I read, this is a ramdisk which tells the kernel which driver modules to load, but I don't really understand it.
Here is the (Entire!!) boot up output copied from the serial console. I ran the uBoot commands manually to boot the kernel.
Thanks for any suggestions!
