Re: [beagleboard] Programing a new BBB Rev C.
I am not sure why you are using the word yes. It will usually ask you to login. You can log in as root (not always recommended) or as a regular user. It will usually give you a login prompt followed by the prompt for the password. If it already shows you root@beaglebone followed by a # then you have in fact already logged in and are now facing a UNIX/Linux shell prompt. Sounds like you are not used to using Unix or Linux from the command line. This can be great fun! You can learn about the Linux command line: http://linuxcommand.org https://www.edx.org/course/linuxfoundationx/linuxfoundationx-lfs101x-introduction-1621#.U-deMlY7Mmw Sounds like you are already logged into a Linux shell. You just have to learn to use Linux from the command line. It really is great fun and very rewarding. You can then open an editor (I like emacs but nano maybe a gentler introduction for a newbie) on the Beaglebone and write your program or if you insist on writing it on your machine and uploading it you can do so using sftp instead of ssh. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSH_File_Transfer_Protocol http://linux.die.net/man/1/sftp I hope this helps.

Re: [beagleboard] Programing a new BBB Rev C.
Lost, You can install, setup, and use Samba on the BBB. So for instance if you're using Windows, you can setup a network drive map, and access that drive through Computer as you would for any other disk listed there. If you need more information I can provide that if I can find my exact steps ssh log. However do keep one thing in mind. If you're going to be doing lots of writes, it would behoove you to mount the root file system via NFS. Which is yet another thing to do, but it is a good learning experience.

I looked up Samba on the internet but haven't figured out exactly what it does or how to use it. Thanks though, I'll keep trying.

Re: [beagleboard] Programing a new BBB Rev C.
https://www.google.com/#q=how+to+debian+wheezy+samba I'll have to look around to find a good simple guide if one is available and I can not find my ssh logs( did a desktop reinstall recently ). One thing to note, anyone telling you to chmod 777 is absolutely 100% WRONG in the context of Samba. You want user authentication at least. Ah here we go: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/74231/how-can-i-easily-configure-samba-share-in-debian-wheezy First answer is pretty good. Although I'd probably change *valid users = @smb *to *valid users = username* If you know how to setup and use groups then it is no big deal.

Re: [beagleboard] Programing a new BBB Rev C.
By the way, if you do not understand any of that, or how to use it. Then I suggest you start reading about Debian, and perhaps setup a Debian virtual machine to toy around with.
