[meta-ti] Cannot boot beaglebone image

Hi There,

Very new to Yocto and the Ti BSP so be nice ;-)

I have built the minimal image and created an SD card with the boot and
rootfs partitions ..

I have copied MLO (first), u-boot.img, am335x-bone.dtb, u-boot-spl.bin and
uImage to the "boot" partition.
(I am not sure if the am33xx file or the spl file is necessary ..)
I have un-tar'ed the root filesystem to the "rootfs" partition.

However when I boot this card, all I see on the beaglebone black is 4
lights on continuous ..
There is no serial port over USB to see what is going on, and no ethernet
device shows up, even after including dropbear in the image ..

I am at a loss ... there is no "standard" serial port to see if u-boot is
coming up at all ..

By the way, to sucessfully build meta-ti, I had to add the following line
to my local.conf   ..
BBMASK ?= ".*/meta-ti/recipes-(misc|bsp/formfactor|graphics/mesa)/"

... if I did not do that, the build failed with all the Angstom licencing
rubbish (it should not be in there .... I want a "distro-less" build  ;)

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers,
Bernie
