Hi, I just did it and I followed the instruction on
http://eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/BeagleBone+Black and then you can patch the whole with https://github.com/SaadAhmad/beaglebone-black-cpp-PWM and https://github.com/Teknoman117/beaglebot/tree/master/encoders/patches It should be straightforward BUT please note that you should read the Soc Manual because the default settings Teknoman choose for the eQep not necessarly will match what you will need (for example when do you want your counts conter to reset?)
