It's my guess, you wrote a new image to the 64GB microSDXC. Following the directions you edited /boot/uEnv.txt, BUT not knowing the microSDXC had failed to be detected, thus you edited the eMMC's /boot/uEnv.txt.. Now it's stuck in a loop.. > I'll try to find a "normal" microSDHC card locally, but I might have to > order online, which will of course introduce a delay. Is there any harm in > continuing my use of the card I have? Well, other then U-Boot/Kernel not detecting the card. The am335x does not officially support microSDXC cards, so what looks to have happened. Some of us tested a few microSDXC cards, when they first came out a few years ago, and while some worked. However it looks like SanDisk dropped that compatibly mode they had used in their first gen microSDXC cards. Anywho, all the BBB/am335x doc's clearly state it only supports "microSDHC" cards (2gb -> 32gb). background: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital#SDXC https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital#Ultra_High_Speed_.28UHS.29_bus > In some of my readings yesterday, I read that I'm supposed to uncomment the > final line of the /boot/uEnv.txt file on the microSD card.

On a > scale of 1 to 10,000,000, how stable is this image? Wrong Scale for this situation. ;) On a scale of, currently not usable -> usable... that image is usable.. After you flash the recover, you can flash any image you want..
