It's the x-loader/u-boot combo...

X-Loader 1.4.2 & U-Boot 2010.03 don't get a long...

you might have the latest mlo (1.44ss) saved to disk, but on the pre
xM's it loads nand first (without pushing the user button) which still
happens to have 1.4.2 saved in nand.. Next x-load loads the u-boot
from mmc, which happens to be teh newer 2010.03 and locks up..

So.. hold the user button, once in u-boot, flash the new mlo to nand..
problem solved..

In my little experience:

There’s no MMC card?

check your serial configuration
don’t power the beagle with usb-otg

Good luck! :slight_smile:
