Linux/BEAGLEBK: Beaglebone Black Rev C

Simon Palma

Part Number: BEAGLEBK

Tool/software: Linux

Hi,

I am trying to write an image (bone-debian-8.6-iot-armhf-2016-12-09-4gb) on a Beaglebone Black (Rev C) via SD Card following the instruction of the beaglebone black getting started guide. I have two SD Cards and by mistake I mounted the empty one on the Beaglebone causing a segmentation fault. Now when trying again with the correct one (the SD Card that has the image) nothing happens and I am not able to communicate anymore with the beaglebone. Just two leds turn on (USR0 and USR1), then nothing else happens. It seems like the eMMC is empty and there is no way to interact with the board.

I would like to know if there is any way to solve this issue. Any suggestion would be helpful. Thanks.

Hi,

Can you try to boot your board with TISDK on your sd card? Are you able to boot it?
If yes, then you should reflash BBB. Not sure why & how, but it is possible that you've damaged the OS image flashed on your eMMC.

Best Regards,
Yordan

Hi,

When you say TISDK, do you mean somethig like am335x-evm-linux-04.00.00.04.img? If that is the case I wasn't able to boot it.

Hi Simon,

This forum support TI PSDK v04.00 (link below). I would suggest you to use that PSDK to create bootable SD card.

Regarding Debian linux support, you should ask/check with BeagleBoard community support page.
