Robert, thank you; this information should prove to be very helpful. I
will probably take some time to try and do it right so that in time it
can be shared. Thanks again.

I am interesting in downloading and upgrading my kernel to Linux

If it helps, since it sounds like your starting over to "upgrading"
your system, this time maybe start with an image with easy kernel
upgrades?
http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardUbuntu#Demo_Image
(or if your in a none linux environment..)
http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardUbuntu#eMMC:_BeagleBone_Black
as kernel upgrades are as easy as:
wget http://rcn-ee.net/deb/raring-armhf/v3.8.13-bone28/install-me.sh
sudo /bin/bash install-me.sh
I have been working in 20 for a few months and have installed quite a few
applications. Are there any directions on:
1) Listing current apt-get packages that need to be re-installed (without
listing dependencies).
dpkg --get-selections > /backup/installed-software.log
sudo aptitude install $(cat /backup/installed-software.log)
2) What directories besides /etc, /home, /lib/firmware and /boot, etc should
be backed up and re-copied to new system
ignore /boot/ the new image should populate the bootloader...
3) Any other considerations for the backup.
This could be a good area for a tutorial; any takers? I could try, but I'm
not knowledgeable enough in kernel/driver issues.
Related question: how often should one be considering going through this
process? Can it be scripted? Thanks.
ah, store your application/scripts off the device and into a private
git/github/etc location... ;)
Regards,
