OK, started out with a fresh BeagleBoard black. It appeared to boot successfully, LEDs look appropriate. Plug in the USB and got
a gadget interface on it. The network came up and worked fine, I could ping it, go to the web server, etc. All fine.
But, when I attempted to ssh to the device, it would accept the connection, then drop the connection immediately.
So, I downloaded the current version of the Angstrom build. Programming seemed to go correctly, got to all 4 LEDs on solid. Rebooted
and now I don’t get a web service. I attempted to “ssh root@192.168.7.1”, and ssh exchanged host keys OK, but the documentation
seems to claim that there is no root password. Normally, that would mean that ssh would not ask for a password, but in fact it is
asking for one. Tried a few possibilities with no success. So, how does one go about logging into the system??
