Get sources by:

Build:
export ARCH=arm export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi- # adapt to your toolchain
make distclean make omap3_gta04_defconfig make menuconfig # only needed if you want to change the default configuration make uImage
The result will be the file arch/arm/boot/uImage. Copy this file to the FAT partition of your SD card.
