Hi Bruce,

Thanks for looking into it.

I have the meta-ti layer included and in the past, it did build a real
kernel version.  I don't know when (because I don't use the kernel
built by the system, I use one from outside bitbake) but this release
(1.8) and last (1.7) has built linux-dummy instead of a real version
and I didn't tell it to.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong on my end but I built this release the
same way I've built all of them (and I've been doing it from the start
of yocto project).

The only other layers I use are meta-openembedded and meta-ti.

Regards,

Brian
