Ok, use -dtb beaglebone (but that has the wrong   conf_board setting.

Also, I am not clear if I should copy the download to the Debian release on 
my SD card and execute there.

Nope it's the correct conf_board setting. am335x_evm is the name of
the u-boot target that supports both the BeagleBone Black and
BeagleBone White. The other setting (maybe i should have named it
something horrific) is the same as am335x_evm but i include a patch
to bypass the eeprom and assume it's 1Ghz BBB.

 Also, I am not clear if I should copy the download to the Debian release on
 my SD card and execute there.

Most people download those images onto an x86 desktop running linux.
But since linux is linux, you can run the setup_sdcard.sh script on
really any version of ubuntu/debian to create the microSD.

Let the bikeshed painting begin.. ;)

Added a warning, to make it more obvious, not to use it..

[beagleboard] debian-7.5-console-armhf-2014-07-06.tar.xz

2014-07-10 Thread jstampfl
Looking at the directions to install:

I am not sure where to copy this download to begin the install.

I have a rev A5 BBB with the standard Angstrom software and a 8GB SD card 
with the ...7.5-2014-5-14... release installed.

I want to leave the Angstrom in place and install the 07-06 Debian on the 
SD card.

Do I copy to Debian running from the SDcard and follow the install steps?

Also looking in the hwpak folder, I see two possible conf files:  
beaglebone.conf and bbb-empty-eprom.conf.  For my case, Debian on SDcard, 
which should I use.

Also note that there is a difference in the beaglebone.conf file:

#!/bin/bash
#--dtb beaglebone (BeagleBone  BeagleBone Black:supported)

SYSTEM=bone

#Bootloader:
conf_board=am335x_evm



The 'conf_board=am335x_evm'   differs from the settings in other conf 
files;

for example:  bbb-empty-eprom.conf has:

#!/bin/bash
#--dtb beaglebone (BeagleBone  BeagleBone Black:supported)

SYSTEM=bone

#Bootloader:
conf_board=am335x_boneblack
