Re: [beagleboard] Re: Beaglebone Black won't boot from Micro SD, all LEDs remain lit

[A M Kent]

I've held down the button you're suggesting for nearly 2mins and no change 
from booting from uSD. Once I eject the uSD and reboot the BBB i'm able to 
boot into to the eMMC, which is running the flashed version of ubuntu. I'm 
simply attempting to run the ubuntu desktop now(from uSD), instead of the 
console version (on eMMC).

[beagleboard] What went wrong

[A M Kent]

I've recently purchased the BBB and over the weekend I went through setting 
it up. I have to say I'm thoroughly impressed with the setup and the size. 
I followed the supplied instructions of connecting the device to my 
computer using the USB cable connecting it from the micro USB port to a 
port on my laptop, installing the necessary files to communicate with the 
device. My
issue occurred when I connected the BB in the following manner.

1. From micro HDMI port to HDMI port on monitor.
2. Connected the 5V power source into the BB
3. Connected a USB cable from the USB jack on the BB to my 4 port powered
USB hub.
4. Connected the micro USB cable into the 4 port hub.
5. Inserted wireless keybrd/mouse dongle into the 4 port hub.

When I applied power to the BB within 1 minute of doing so I hear a faint 
high pitch tone and shortly thereafter I see a spark coming from the board. 
Based on the setup described what could have gone wrong?

Re: [beagleboard] I powered the analog input of my BeagleBone Black with more than 1.8V

[A M Kent]

I think the same is the case with mine. Here's what I experienced. 
See this forum entry. 

would the RMA link you've provided apply to my situation as well?
