Hi there
I just tried to install Debian wheezy from Robert Nelson as described here:
http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardDebian#Debian_Stable_.28wheezy.29
i.e.:
wget [https://rcn-ee.net/deb/rootfs/wheezy/debian-7.5-console-armhf-2014-07-06.tar.xz](https://rcn-ee.net/deb/rootfs/wheezy/debian-7.5-console-armhf-2014-07-06.tar.xz)
sudo ./setup_sdcard.sh --mmc /dev/sdX --dtb beaglebone
However the SD card won’t boot. All I get is three constantly ignited LEDs.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Did you hold down the "boot" button?
Regards,
You could also download the git version of "setup_sdcard.sh" and use
the "--bbb-old-bootloader-in-emmc"
rm setup_sdcard.sh
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RobertCNelson/omap-image-builder/master/tools/setup_sdcard.sh
chmod +x setup_sdcard.sh

Hey Robert!
Quick as ever!! Yes, that solved my problem.
Dammit - usually I don’t have to press the boot button - before it booted from the card right away.
Thank you very much!

Yeah, i got a little to creative with the bootloader..
http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:U-boot_partitioning_layout_2.0
So things down the road will be way easier. You can easily switch
between bb.org/debian/ubuntu/fedora/etc kernels'.
The first month or so of the transition will just be the worst..

Is there a way to have SDcard boot as default again?
Awesome image by the way!
It does... Once you update the bootloader in the eMMC..
