Hey there,
I am new here and completely new to beaglebone. I read the starting guide to board. MI am using Ubuntu 16.04 lts as host machine.
My problem is.
When I am connecting BBB to my PC. And opening the start.html file the install driver is not green. I've already run the mkudevrule.sh as root. I can't ssh to 192.168.7.2 says no route to host. I am not able to ping it either. Ping command says destination host unreachable.
BBB is shown as enx38d26993f39b in ifconfig and inet addr:10.42.0.1 I manually changed it 192.168.7.1 but no luck with that.
I can see dhcpclient running on host as well.
Now if I reeboot my PC with BBB attached and then try to connect it works. And it always works that way. I am not sure if this problem is already posted here. Couldn't find anything about it. If I reset my board then it gets disconnected and I need to reeboot my PC in order to connect to board again.
Not sure if this is the problem with dhcp.
/Etc/network/interfaces reads as below
Auto lo
Iface lo inet loopback
I added below lines to the file
Auto eth0
Allow-hotplug eth0
Iface eth0 inet dhcp
Please help
