Hi William, I have been using SSH of putty in Windows 7 for BBB. But this will work only if the image is properly flashed in eMMC or in microSD card so that I can login in and connect.
But in this case, I am facing issue in flashing the Debian image from microSD to eMMC and I want to debug during this process using FTDI serial cable. Will I be able to debug it using serial program of putty during the this process? Thanks!!
