Can somebody point me at the procedure for restoring the uSD card that
came with my BeagleBoard to its factory configuration?
Searching around, I came across the very promising wiki page:
http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardRecovery
which points me at the even more promising Google Code page
http://code.google.com/p/beagleboard/wiki/BeagleboardRevCValidation
which says that the xM validation procedure is still under development.
I can dd an image from the uSD card for my 2nd BeagleBoard onto this
one, but I'd like to find the official instructions, if I can.

Hi Gerald,
I followed these instructions for my BeagleBoard-xM rev A. I wrote BeagleBoard-xM xMTEST_Beta_4_25 on the SD card.
Linux boots, and I see the login window. Then, it restarts. I am powering the board with an external 600mA power supply.
What can be the cause?
best wishes,

Get a bigger power supply. 600mA is not enough. Go at least 1.2A preferably 2A if you plan to use the USB ports…

I created http://beagleboard.org/peripheral. Can you critique?
