how to install Kernel source on beagleboard-xm angstrom
 

Hi all,
i am new in angstrom beagleboard
i want to install kernel source pease help me out.

Normally, the kernel sources are just a tarball, usually compressed. Just download the tarball, and unroll the tarball. Unroll the tarball in a private directory, not in /usr/src. Almost trivial to perform; is there something I'm missing?

Hi,
i want to install usb to serial(MOXA UPort 1110) converter on my beagle board xm that need kernel source.
currently kernel 2.6.32 version install.

So, you will need a toolchain to build either natively or a cross toolchain to build on a conventional desktop PC. In either case, download and unroll the source tarball. The Makefile for your driver should have an entry that you set to point at the kernel source tree.
