Hi. You are right. You can safely remove the drivers/zephyr subfolder.

Dear Hakon,
it might be our NCS installations differ in some environment variable.
I guess this is beacuse I plumped for working with git submodules instead of letting west to manage multiple repositories in the standard way.
Anyway, I've solved the problem by myself.
I realized that, to get the driver compiled, cmake needed to know were to find the binding file (dts/bindings/dac/ti,dacx0501.yaml).
Placing hereunder statement in the app's CMakeList.txt proved to be the right thing.

list(APPEND DTS_ROOT ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/../board-definition)

This solves the problem.
Thank you for your willing to help

When I run the build script it tries to build for the nrf9160_pca10090 board, which is deprecated. Shouldn't it build for the custom board you mentioned?
