[beagleboard] Workaround to speed boot times for BBB debian image

Hi, I noticed that BBB takes around 1 and half minute to finish the boot process because of /etc/init.d/networking service taking too much time to execute. I did some modifications into the networking script and the boot time reported by systemd got reduced to about 5 secs while the network be

[beagleboard] Question regarding squashfs

Hi Robert, I am using a BBB Rev A5C which only has 2 GB of emmc storage. In order to conserve the storage, I am thinking to use squashfs for my root file-system. The layout I am planning will be some thing like a /boot partition, / partition, and then another partition that will act as an over

Hi Robert, I have built a customized debian image based on your latest imagebuilder script, and I am also facing this issue. Is it still broken? If yes, could you please tell the steps to get it working? Regards viraniac On Saturday, August 23, 2014 12:08:30 AM UTC+5:30, RobertCNelson wrote: >

I am sorry as what I am posting is not entirely related to this thread but is a feature request for debian. I liked the console image as it saves a lot of disc image by removing all the GUI softwares. I am running my BBB headless mostly controlling it using ssh and by bone portal. For console i

Robert, My system while booting shows a debian boot splash. Then it shows a black screen for about 4 to 5 seconds before displaying the java program that I am running as my GUI. I am using startx command configured in /etc/rc.local to start the X environment and a /root/.xinitrc file to start

Re: [beagleboard] Re: Help Needed : Custom built debian image

Hi Robert, One thing that I forgot to mention was that I am interacting with BBB over ssh. I guess its taking LANG from my host machine. If I check LANG from lxterminal, it comes as en_US and everything works fine. Can we force it to use en_US on ssh also? Regards viraniac On Wednesday, April
