[beagleboard] BBB & latest Debian on eMMC Wifi broken after reboot

I've decided to put the BBB to use as a home media server instead of leaving my pc on all the time. I put the latest Debian flashable image on a microSD, held down the button, installed the image on the flash, removed the microSD, plugged in the wifi usb module. Got it working, updated the OS b

[beagleboard] Debian run a python script on power up

Creating a service on Angstrom to run a python script on power up works great. I tried to do the same with Debian but had no luck. Is this possible? Mike -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Be

[beagleboard] Re: Received my 4GB eMMC BBB

Lame question here: I have the old Rev B with Debian on an 8Gig microSD and Angstrom that I never use installed in flash. I've had no problems installing whatever I need or running out of space because of the 8Gigs of storage. Is there any disadvantage to this other then maybe slower speed?
