[beagleboard] reliability issues with Beaglebone Blacks, various failures

2016-07-14 Thread John Stoner
In our lab we have 8-9 Beaglebone Black units. We are using them to control high intensity lights, with circuits in the 7A/9V neighborhood. The circuits are simple, using mosfets to control the high power circuits. There is water in our environment but we protect our electronics pretty well,

So I downloaded and installed the Jessie IoT Snapshot. I like that it doesn't have a bunch of stuff running I don't need. I am trying to get the USB networking to work. It worked with the board straight out of the box, so I know the problem is not on my laptop. After flashing the IoT image I

Thanks, I appreciate your efforts. Please read that with zero sarcasm. I've been there too, thinking I knew what would save someone time and effort and not realizing I was in a different situation. I have a large application to build. I'm not sure how much of the complexity is going to be running

I am trying to set a static IP on my new BBB. The instructions I found here http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:Terminal_Shells say 'modify your /etc/network/interfaces, or make a new file.' I downloaded the file at https://s3.amazonaws.com/angstrom/demo/beaglebone/BBB-eMMC-flasher-2013.09.04.img.xz
