I have two Rev B beaglebone blacks. One I never used since I bought it. I recently ordered a Rev C to use for my project but I thought I might as well try to make some use the one I have never used. I wanted to put Debian 7.5 on the device so it would be similar to the one I will get in a couple of days.
I first booted the device with the factory installed Angstrom distribution. It worked well. I then downloaded the image from http://beagleboard.org/latest-images I downloaded Older Debian images BeagleBone Black (eMMC flasher) Debian 7.5 (BeagleBone Black - 2GB eMMC) 2014-05-14 - more info - bittorrent - md5: 74615fb680af8f252c034d3807c9b4ae I put the image on a microSd card, held the boot button down until it started to echo info to the display It booted and the screen showed in red letters that it was a temporary installation and I needed to flash to the eMMC. I used the terminal program and it seemed to work. I didn't have time to flash it so I shut it down. A couple of hours later I went back to try it again and it would not boot the original Angstrom, the blue led's all stay on and nothing happens. If I try to load the Debian image I get 3 lines on the display that I will post next. [25.132791] libphy: PHY 4a101000.mdio:01 not found [25.137954] net etho: phy 4a101000.mdio.01 not found on slave 1 [28.305991] tilcdc 4830e000.fb: timeout waiting framedone Then it waits a period and seems go go to neverlnd. The display responds that it has lost its signal. Any help would be useful. Useful responses might be something like: Sorry dude, your device is now bricked. or Maybe you can get better response here or Advice on how to reset the device or something.
