Hi Rajender,

Welcome to the Yocto Project.

We just recently completed a major overhaul to the meta-yocto
beagleboard BSP, bringing it closer in line with the
meta-texasinstruments BSP. I have tested on a C4 and an xM Rev A. I have
reports of it working on rev B and not working on rev C, which we are
looking into.

For the best Yocto beagleboard support, I suggest building from the git
repository until the 1.1 release later this year.
