I am not sure what you mean with "to disable the buffer before until you 
come up". 
Directly connect the Beagle SYS_RESETn pin to the pin 29 of the Atmega`s?

What would be the positive effect by using the SYS_5V. I think it is 
directly connected to the Beagle DC plug. So, it can drive more current?

Two more ideas:
 * would it be helpful to add a 0,1µF capacitor to the beagle voltage 
supply pins on the header, between VDD_3v3 and Gnd very close to the beagle 
headers?
 * would it be better to completely supply my cape from SYS_5V and create 
the 3v for the Atmegas and the other components on the cape with the 
MCP1703?
