If opting wrong image the which exact Image I should try with BBB Board.
If some booting process is not correct, please suggest what should I correct.
I want to skill up device drivers programming at uboot and kernel with yocto too hence please give references of each three i.e. yocto, uboot, kernel customization. So that I can working three sdcards :
A. Image from Latest Software Images - BeagleBoard.
B. Yocto sdcard.
C. Cutomized uboot and linux kernel sdcard.
Will be great help if i can have early suggestion.
supposedly the later versions of Etcher do not work. if you search this site for Etcher you’ll see comments. i use an older version 1.5.70 and it works. @RobertCNelson posted the other day the last version that seemed to work. He recommended using some RPI imager, not sure what it’s called.
dd command should work, my experience is that it’s not 100% reliable. it does not verify the image after the copy.
this is the rpi one, never used it. sudo apt install rpi-imager
But rpi-imager is basically for RPI Board, can u share further details to flash BBB Board from same . Although I have worked with rpi-imager but with RPI CM4 Board.
I uninstall old balena and reinstall new from your given link afterwards I flash new sdcard with am335x-debian-11.7-iot-armhf-2023-09-02-4gb.img.xz image, but again same problem Missing partition table when clicked on START.htm. How should I fix this issue ?
My doubt is img.xz file also, which exact file should I use here ?
No Belena/etc has nothing to do with the final image… I need to look at am335x-debian-11.7-iot-armhf-2023-09-02-4gb.img.xz and see what we actually ‘export’ over USB-flash emulation…
Yeap, this is the default image that will show up over the usb-flash drive:
I think this is the very point: @Ankur your Ubuntu is somewhat misconfigured, open that HTML file with a browser of your choice.
Furthermore, you might want to get into the beaglebone. I don’t remember exactly the login credentials (root / empty pw?), but the usb connection should also offer you a new network connection, which you can use to ssh into the beaglebone: ssh root@192.168.7.1
I have following observation :
Usually in bootable oendrive / sdcards there are two partition i.e. root and boot, here image itself is having only one partition which inturn mean no boot partition is available. I feel this is the root of cause here.
If i can have the correct image with boot and root, i think this issue may be sort it out. thats y i asked which exact image…but in that page, i tried approximately 6 image, all having same issue, none is having the boot partition.
While i’m bringing back the ‘fat’ partition for EU/UK cyberlaws (sysconf.txt), we have not had a ‘boot’ partition for over 10 years on BeagleBone Black / am335x devices images.
The issue why “etcher” complains after you click the “readme.html” is a bug in etcher taking over *.html links on your system.
Next time, right click on the “*.html” file, select “properties” and “open with” back to firefox/etc (or reset to system defaults)…
