Meant Beagleboard XM, according to the TI data sheet, the commercial grade 
CPU is only guaranteed to work to 0C.

Same is likely true for all the other components on the board.  I used to 
work many years ago in qualifying hardware to MILSPEC and even getting 
military grade parts to work at the bottom of their temperature range after 
a cold soak can be a challenge.
