This tutorial shows how to setup your BeagleBone Black board to run the Debian Stretch distro. Unlike the previous SD card images, the Stretch image does not work out-of-the-box and requires a minor adjustment and this tutorial explains the necessary steps in detail.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Download the latest image from the Beaglebone Image Catalog<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  2. Download and unpack WinFLASHTool<\/a> that will be used to write the SD Card images.<\/li>\n
  3. Insert your SD card into an SD card reader, run WinFLASH Tool and select the image to program:\"01-flash\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  4. Wait for the SD card to be programmed. This may take 5-15 minutes:\"02-program\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  5. WinFLASHTool will also automatically resize the Ext3FS filesystem on the image to fit the entire SD Card (if the corresponding option was enabled):\"03-resize\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  6. If you try inserting the SD card into your Beaglebone and starting it, the 3 user LEDs near the USB connector will turn on and the board won’t boot:\"board\"<\/a>Unlike Raspberry Pi that always shows the debug console via HDMI, the Beaglebone’s HDMI output will remain blank. We will now show how to read the diagnostic output from the on-board UART port.<\/li>\n
  7. Locate the schematics<\/a> for your Beaglebone and find out the port used for the serial console (RX and TX). On BeagleBone Black the TX signal can be found on pin #5 on J1. We will now use a logic analyzer to view the output from the board. You can use any logic analyzer (or a 3V USB-to-UART adapter), however in this tutorial we will show how to use Analyzer2Go<\/a> that runs on top of popular development boards. Download and install Analyzer2Go, connect a supported board over USB and start it:\"04-a2go\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  8. Locate the inputs that can be used to capture signals and enable one of them:\"05-port\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  9. Connect the GND signal on the Beaglebone to the GND signal on your board and the TX signal on Beaglebone to the input used for capturing:\"2boards\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  10. Go to the Protocol Analyzers tab, add a UART protocol analyzer and connect it to the captured port: \"06-proto\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  11. Press the “Record” button and restart your Beaglebone:\"07-sdmmc\"<\/a>You should normally see the following output:\n
    musb-hdrc: ConfigData=0xde (UTMI-8, dyn FIFOs, HB-ISO Rx, HB-ISO Tx, SoftConn)\r\nmusb-hdrc: MHDRC RTL version 2.0 \r\nmusb-hdrc: setup fifo_mode 4\r\nmusb-hdrc: 28\/31 max ep, 16384\/16384 memory\r\nUSB Peripheral mode controller at 47401000 using PIO, IRQ 0\r\nmusb-hdrc: ConfigData=0xde (UTMI-8, dyn FIFOs, HB-ISO Rx, HB-ISO Tx, SoftConn)\r\nmusb-hdrc: MHDRC RTL version 2.0 \r\nmusb-hdrc: setup fifo_mode 4\r\nmusb-hdrc: 28\/31 max ep, 16384\/16384 memory\r\nUSB Host mode controller at 47401800 using PIO, IRQ 0\r\nOMAP SD\/MMC: 0<\/pre>\n<\/li>\n
  12. The output comes from the U-Boot bootloader programmed into the Beaglebone’s internal FLASH memory. It tries accessing the SD card, but ultimately fails to read any configuration from it. To fix this, you need to rename\/copy the bbb-uEnv.txt<\/strong> file on the SD card to uEnv.txt<\/strong>. You can do this by plugging the card into any Linux machine (e.g. boot Beaglebone from the internal memory and then insert the SD card), mounting the SD card and running the “cp” command:\"rename\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  13. Now you can boot Beaglebone with the new SD card image and it will start successfully:\"09-log2\"<\/a>\n

  14. Now you can connect the Ethernet cable to your Beaglebone and ping it to check the connection:\"10-beaglebone\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  15. Once the connection is successful, you can use SmarTTY<\/a> or any other SSH client to connect to your Beaglebone via SSH. The default username\/password are shown below:
