Need help with login BeagleBone

Hi,
I have just install linux on a another laptop different with the one I used to work with my BeagleBone. After install minicom and run beaglebone, terminal come to the beaglebone login: prompt, I enter root and press enter. There is nothing happens. I am not sure what goings on.

I am not an experience linux user so please give me advice.

I attached the login terminal here.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I had the same effect here...
Take a look at the boot log: Is there a line which says,
that the usb-gadget driver switches the USB to ethernet?

Best regards,

Hi,
Now I understand because I used CCS to program and run the console to control the board. It may the problem.

Could you please tell me how to switch it back to USB?
The reason I have to do this is to find out the IP address which I don’t remember and I don’t have access to my old computer anymore.

Thanks!

Hi,

there simple workaround:
For login in use ssh and dont attach anything to the mini-usb-jack.

If you can compile a kernel yourself, remove the appropiate module --
but you loose this feature also.

You may also try to mount the beaglebone as usb-storage and unmount
it again ("eject drive" (or so) under Windows).

But be warned! I am no usb guru at all...

Good luck!
Best regards,
mcc
