[Angstrom-devel] branch org.openembedded.angstrom-2007.12-stable has multiple heads

[Thomas Jensen]

Hi

I have an iPAQ 3950. It won't boot angstrom from flash, and when I
complained about it a few weeks ago, koen Kooi asked if someone would
fix it. Nothing has been fixed yet, so I decided to look into it myself.
I am just an amateur programmer, so I don't know how much help I can be.
Maybe I will only be a pain in the ass, because I have to ask so many
questions... ;-)

Well, yesterday I installed OE etc., and I started to build the stuff,
but got errors. Something about to use gcc 3.x instead of 4.x (???). I
finally deleted everything, and started installing from scratch again. 

But now there are multiple heads!

mtn: choose one with 'mtn checkout -r<id>'
mtn: error: branch org.openembedded.angstrom-2007.12-stable has multiple
heads

I read somewhere in the documentation that it is not good (...). 
Will it be fixed in the near future, or should I choose one of them?

What if I get errors again when building? What is the best way to ask
for help? IRC? This mailing list?
