As it says on the front page, some of the Wiki pages are outdated and are for 
the Classic OpenEmbedded setup of Arago. So, Setting Up Build Environment is 
marked as outdated.

OMAP5 is only supported in the new OpenEmbedded-Core and Yocto Project setup 
of Arago (or another compatible distro). Unfortunately, not all Wiki pages 
were updated yet.

For setting things up for the new build environment, you can clone our 
oe-layersetup repository and use one of the config files provided:

$ git://arago-project.org/git/projects/oe-layersetup.git o5-build
$ cd o5-build
$ ./oe-layertool-setup.sh -f configs/distroless-meta-ti-config.txt
$ cd build
$ . conf/setenv
$ MACHINE=omap5-evm bitbake core-image-minimal

The above will only give you basic oe-core and meta-ti layers, but enough for 
a minimal OMAP5 image to build.

Feel free to try arago-danny-config.txt instead of distroless-meta-ti-config 
above - this way you will also get additional layers configured (meta-oe, 
meta-linaro, meta-arago) that follows our own Arago Project distribution 
closely.
