http://beagleboard.org/getting-started. I was happy to see, the
programs on the website worked just fine on my board. Thus, I was able
to conclude that strangely, my BBB board didn't like 5V external power
source!
The BeagleBone Black & BlueSteel Basic seem to be extremely sensitive to
the rise time of the 5V power supply at startup.
1 ms or longer is a problem, and it is not at all unusual for power
supply to be slower than this.
200 us is reliable.

The original BeagleBone White, for whatever reason, did not have this
issue. (Anyone know why?)
I feed my raw power in through a voltage-controlled solid state relay
circuit, and I get 100% reliable startups now.
