I bought this board a bit on a whim, so I don't have my usual embedded supplies on hand (e.g. a 5V power supply). I'll give it a go as soon as I get my hands on one. But basically, the only feedback I can get from the board are the activity LEDs (U0-3), which are blinking as prescribed.
Yeah, I think Angstrom will be replaced by either embedded Ubuntu or Fedora. Should I perhaps try to flash a fresh OS image onto the board?
