   There are a number of packages that need to be updated to give 
CLFSembedded half a chance.

  You will need the svn versions of Busybox and uClibc.
  Update the kernel to an omap.git to get Beagleboard support. 2.6.27.1 
is not enough.
  Use kernel headers install (see latest CLFS)
  Update binutils to 2.18
  Update gcc to 4.3.1 to pick up the Beagleboard processor.
  Add u-boot_beagle_revb.tar.gz (necessary to create the kernel uImage).

  All the package updates require significant changes to the build code.
  Oh, and a _thousand patches_ to the above packages.  :-)

  My CV for the above comments::
  I have a beagleboard (great toy, lots of potential)
  I have not been able to get CLFSEmbedded to build due to all the 
changes necessary.

  George
