This page is about running a (ARM EABI) Debian distribution at BeagleBoard. BeagleBoard will boot the (ARM EABI) Debian distribution from SD card. Debian's NetInstall will be used to install Debian onto your Beagle.
Contents
- 1 Help
- 2 Official BeagleBoard.org Images for shipping with BeagleBone Black
- 3 Recommended Beagle Software
- 4 Debian NetInstall
- 5 Demo Image
- 6 Flasher
- 7 raw microSD img
- 8 Debian Configuration
- 9 Building Kernel
- 10 Upgrading from Debian 5 to Debian 6
- 11 Upgrading from Debian 6 (Squeeze) to Debian 7 (Wheezy)
Help
If you need any help:
- Kernel related help:
- Email Beagleboard user group *Recommended method
- #beagle: Beagle irc on freenode, accessible also by web interface (logs)
- Kernel Tree's
- When asking for help, please provide some debugging information:
- U-Boot Version installed on board
- Kernel Version: uname -a
- pastebin dmesg
- Copy from serial port or use "dmesg | pastebinit" (sudo apt-get install pastebinit)
Official BeagleBoard.org Images for shipping with BeagleBone Black
Recommended Beagle Software
Mainline U-Boot:
- All old Ax, Bx, Cx and Dx boards are required to upgrade to at least these U-Boot versions.
- XM Boards have no NAND, so MLO/u-boot.img is always required on the first partition
- Directions: Upgrade X-loader and U-Boot
Debian NetInstall
Scripts:
git clone https://github.com/RobertCNelson/netinstall.git cd netinstall
Device Options:

Quick install script for [board]
sudo ./setup_sdcard.sh --mmc /dev/sdX --uboot board
[board] options:
- BeagleBone/Black - bone
So for the BeagleBone:
sudo ./setup_sdcard.sh --mmc /dev/sdX --uboot bone
Quick install script for [board] (using new --dtb option)
sudo ./setup_sdcard.sh --mmc /dev/sdX --dtb board
board options:
- BeagleBoard Ax/Bx/Cx/Dx - omap3-beagle
- BeagleBoard xM - omap3-beagle-xm
So for the BeagleBoard xM:
sudo ./setup_sdcard.sh --mmc /dev/sdX --dtb omap3-beagle-xm
Advanced: Build Image:
Built with a fork of project-rootstock (ARM native mode, runs directly on BeagleBoard), using a script from omap-image-builder:

Flasher
eMMC: BeagleBone Black
This image can be written to a 2GB (or larger) microSD card, via 'dd' on linux or the win32 image program linked to on CircuitCo's wiki page. First press and hold the boot select button (next to the microSD card), then apply power (same procedure as the official CircuitCo images). The board should boot into Debian and begin flashing the eMMC, once completed all 4 LED's should be full ON. Simply remove power, remove the microSD card and Debian will now boot directly from eMMC.
Script for reference: (this is the script that writes to the eMMC)
https://github.com/RobertCNelson/boot-scripts/blob/master/tools/beaglebone-black-eMMC-flasher.sh
BTW: we are only writing about 500 megabytes to the eMMC, so the script will only take about 5-6 Minutes after power on.
Notes:
- If only two LED's stay lit and nothing happens, the board has crashed due to lack of power. Retry with a 5Volt DC power supply connected.
- If the 4 LED's blink a constant pattern, the eMMC write has failed. First REMOVE ALL capes, then retry again.
- (error -84: which may mean you've reached the max number of erase/write cycles...)
