Thanks Robert,

I ran the setup_sdcard.sh like this: sudo ./setup_sdcard.sh --img
myimage.img --dtb beaglebone --uboot bone.  This seemed to do the trick.
 The script complained about dependencies, which I installed, but it
probably should also check for the parted package.  Parted was not
originally installed, which caused the script to fail. I'll look around the
script and see if I can submit a pull request.

It looks like I can add packages in /var/pkg_list.sh.  But if I wanted to
add a repo besides the normal repositories, like one would normally do to
/etc/apt/sources.list, I didn't see (or understand) how I could set this up.

Josh
