 Well, Angstrom build without a glitch. I am able to build
angstrom-console-image and angstrom-x11-image.

 One more thing I have noticed, metadata (result of `mtn head` of
openembedded for angstrom and metadata for openmoko is different. Is
it normal ?

 Secondly, as mentioned before, I was able to build openmoko thrice on
same amchine and i have working images too (tested with xoo, if that
can be called working). I did not do any upgrades or installed any
software since the last build, so wht could possibly be causing the
problem ?

Any pointers ?
