-This layer hard depends on:

branch: master

+There are known issues when using a toolchain with gcc-4.6 and binutils-2.22
+from OpenEmbedded-Core, thus it is recommended to use meta-openembedded layer
+with gcc-4.5 + Linaro patches and binutils-2.20.1.
-Currently meta-ti only works with the Angstrom distribution and hence
-requires the meta-angstrom layer. There are known issues when using
-gcc-4.6 based toolchain from OpenEmbedded-Core, thus gcc-4.5 toolchain,
-provided by meta-openembedded, is needed. It is planned to fix these
-shortcomings in the near future and allow building the base BSP part
-of meta-ti with different distributions and layer stacks, such as:
-distro-less (only with OE-Core), with Yocto/Poky, with Angstrom or
-Arago.
+The base BSP part of meta-ti should work with different OpenEmbedded/Yocto
+distributions and layer stacks, such as:
+distro-less (only with OE-Core), with Yocto/Poky, with Angstrom or Arago.
-Due to the above, it is now recommended to follow the instructions at
-http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/building-angstrom
+Please follow the recommended setup procedures of your OE distribution. When
+using in a distro-less configuration, please add to your local.conf:
-This will set it up for the OpenEmbedded-core ('yocto') layout instead
-of the old "Classic" OpenEmbedded-dev layout. You can optionally tweak
-sources/layers.txt and conf/bblayers.conf to (de)select BSP layers.
