It would not be part of "my" FAQ. I have no affiliation with beagleboard.org, at all. I'm just some guy, who has had 4+ years hands on experience with this specific platform, who also just so happens to get paid by a third party who builds systems based on this platform as well. But obviously I do

Perhaps a work-around would be to provide a software possibility of freezing the unit after the kernel is down. Handy for someone who has a power-hungry cape requiring a power supply, no Ethernet and would like to safely replace the sd card. If it were possible to detect, that the unit is

The board is connected to a 5V power supply, to a USB hub and via Ethernet to a router. It has no capes. uname -a Linux beaglebone 4.4.39-ti-r75 #1 SMP Thu Dec 15 22:16:11 UTC 2016 armv7l GNU/Linux The command sudo systemctl poweroff reboots it just like shutdown -P now However, if

shutdown -P now does the same as shutdown -h now: reboots the board. So I still do not know a way of shutting it down. I attach the relevant part of syslog. On Sunday, April 23, 2017 at 3:04:21 AM UTC+2, Graham wrote: > > > shutdown -P now > > --- Graham > > == > > On Saturday, April 22, 2017
