OMAP L-138 DSP+ARM9 LCDK error while trying to rebuilding the kernel

Hello,


I am using an OMAP L-138 DSP+ARM9 development kit to test an USB camera. On the first time that i have connected the camera to this development kit, i noticed that the v4l2 drivers weren't present. So, i started to search over the internet, and i have found that to activate this video drivers, it was needed to rebuild the kernel and activate some options on a config menu.  I was able to build the kernel and activate the the options on the config menu, but when i load the kernel image to the board, it got stuck on the message  'Starting Kernel...' of the serial terminal. Maybe i did a lot of error on the way long, so i am describing my procedure bellow.

I started to follow this guide to rebuild the kernel:
http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Building_03.22_PSP_release_Components_for_OMAP-L138#Basic_Configuration_of_the_Kernel


and i have activated the following options in the config menu:

                        -*- THS7303 Video Amplifier

While trying to compile the kernel i got this erro:



In order to avoid this error , i have comment the 3 responsible lines on kernel/timeconst.pl file, and it worked:

---At the end of the file---
} else {
	$hz += 0;			# Force to number
	if ($hz < 1) {
		die "Usage: $0 HZ\n";
	}

	@val = @{$canned_values{$hz}};
	#if (!defined(@val)) {
	#	@val = compute_values($hz);
	#}
	output($hz, @val);
}

After editing the file, and repeating the command to build the kernel image, i was able to generate the image as expected, here are the .config file (Please visit the site to view this file)

and all the commands used to build the kernel:

After copy the new uImage to the microSD card, and started the board, i got this output on minicom:
