Setup

Copy OS to microSD card

  • Download OS (.img.xz)
  • unzip
  • figure out what your card is. check df before and after inserting the card:
df -h
  • unmount the drive:
diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk2s1
  • copy image to drive:
dd if=Angstrom-Cloud9-IDE-GNOME-eglibc-ipk-v2012.12-beaglebone-2013.06.20.img of=/dev/rdisk2 bs=1m

Default boot from SD card

  • boot beaglebone while holding S2 (by SD card reader). this boots from the sd card.
  • move the MLO file from /media/BEAGLEBONE/ to a safe place
mkdir backup
mv /media/BEAGLEBONE/MLO backup
  • The beaglebone will now boot from microSD until you replace the MLO file.
