Build Linux kernel, using OpenEmbedded

Vote count:

0

I want to build Angstrom kernel on Ubuntu 13.04 host machine using OpenEmbedded.

git clone git://github.com/Angstrom-distribution/setup-scripts.git
cd setup-scripts
MACHINE=beagleboard./oebb.sh config beagleboard
MACHINE=beagleboard./oebb.sh update
MACHINE=beagleboard./oebb.sh bitbake virtual/kernel

After building the kernel, I intend to cross-compile a kernel driver on host machine, targeting on Angstrom distribution (BeagleBoard). Beagleboard runs a prebuilt image of 2.6.32.

As I know, the cross-compile must target not only the Angstom distibution, but the same kernel version that BeagleBoard runs. What will be the kernel version, that OE will download and build? Is there any way I can determine the kernel version that OE will build?

Sorry, for the newbie question. If my syllogism is not correct, please let me know.
