Hello,
Please refer to this thread:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/beagleboard/FhS9tmPerB0
I am starting a new one because I’m not sure the person that so kindly helped me then is monitoring it…
I have been browsing the internet for a while and even contacted tincantools and debugging the BeagleBone and got this reply:
"The BeagleBone board does not come with a JTAG connector installed from the factory. To debug the BeagleBoard you will have to solder a JTAG connector onto the board and remove some of the jumper resistors.
We are currently working on a solution that will use the Flyswatter2 JTAG debugger along with a JTAG converter board and supply a JTAG connector that will work with the BeagleBoard board."
I don’t understand: Can the BeagleBone be debugged using OpenOCD via its USB link, or do I need to solder a JTAG connector?
Thanks

No soldering required, unless you want to use an optional 20 pin CTI
JTAG header
See http://beagleboard.org/static/beaglebone/latest/README.htm
Look at the Using USB-to-serial/JTAG/Ethernet on your computer section.
