Hi everyone,

So I messed around with my beaglebone a little bit last night. I worked out 
the issues in my device tree source file so it is now compiled but I can't 
seem to get anything to echo properly to "slots"
I compile my ".dtb" file but when I go to call the comman: 
echo PRU-GPIO-BLINK > /sys/devices/platform/bone_capemgr/slots
I continually get the error:
-bash: echo: write error: No such file or directory
Is there are a different way to enable my device overlay or set the pins to 
the correct mode for the PRU? I have even tried copying, compiling and 
attempting to export the device tree overlay example from adafruit and 
still no luck.

The names of my files in /lib/firmware are as follows:
PRU-GPIO-BLINK.dts
PRU-GPIO-BLINK-00A0.dtb
The part-number name in the .dts file is "PRU-GPIO-BLINK". Am I still 
missing something? I can post the updated ".dts" file if it would help.

P.S. I have two questions since I am still relatively new at this:
1) What is a blacklist and why was it necessary to export to the .conf file 
to enable the remote_proc?
2) What is dmesg and where do I check them? Are you referring to 
"/var/log/syslog"?

Zach
