I just ordered my first Black today. I have been using RPi's for awhile but due to the lousy USB interface I wanted to try the Black. Anyhow I have a few questions.
I plan to run Debian and I see I have the option of running it in microSD or the internal EMMC. I am not clear on the advantage/disadvantage of one vs. the other. I know I want to be able to boot at power up without pushing buttons so I suspect the EMMC image is the best choice. When an OS is flashed to EMMC the data (writable) area is Where? In RAM or MicroSD? I want to customize the OS and add my own code is this done on the microSD image and then flashed? I am not clear on how this works. Of course on the RPi the SD card is the OS and and changes you make are stored there. Maybe there is a document that explains this? -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
