Robert,

I tried this new build on a BBB with good success. I used the
setup_sdcard.sh approach on an 8GB SD card. WiFi works with a cheapo
Rosewill USB dongle:

[   15.015308] rtl8192cu: Loading firmware rtlwifi/rtl8192cufw.bin
[   15.015468] usbcore: registered new interface driver rtl8192cu

I am using the 3.13 kernel:

Linux markbbb 3.13.0-rc8-bone4 #1 SMP Tue Jan 14 16:22:05 UTC 2014 armv7l
GNU/Linux

I have an I2C 8x8 LED matrix scrolling continuously, so i2c is good.

Running headless so no report on HDMI.

A couple small requests/suggestions:

* Add /sbin and /usr/sbin to the default PATH
* Enable the EXTRA_GROUPS options in /etc/adduser.conf and add i2c to the
EXTRA_GROUPS
* Add a way to identify the build version (or tell me how). I see
/etc/os-release but it does not have a RCN build identifier in it

Thanks much for your work on this.

Mark
