I installed the alpha SDK and was able to boot a root file system using the
uImage in the SVN repository. After that I tried to recompile the kernel
but the omap patch against the kernel failed to apply cleanly.

I use the sisusb vga adapter so I currently switched to the OE kernel
without pain (yet).

I will try some more but as the OE kernel appears to work it might be better
to try to get the Beta running on the Beagle.
