I am totally a nenwbie to BBB - I am having trouble connecting it to my pc through ethernet. I am using Angstrom. I’ve tried following the instructions here: http://derekmolloy.ie/set-ip-address-to-be-static-on-the-beaglebone-black/ but then I run into lots of errors:

I cannot find the ethernet_c8a030ab323a_cable# Derek speaks about, I cannot fint the /etc/network/interfaces to try to edit the file indicated by Derek.
Any idea why I am getting those errors? You help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
