New to BBB/Angstrom, but not to Linux, in my last step before catastrophy I 
added an fstab entry to the eMMC root file system which made the gadget 
inoperable - partially, at least.
What I did is

   1. partitioned and formatted an SD as Linux/ext3, with one single 
   partition, and a name like 'BBone'
   2. added a proper uEnv.txt to the SD root
   3. attached it and booted. Everything okay so far. Transferred some code 
   to the SD, compiled it and ran the stuff - worked.
   4. added a mount entry to the fstab, looking like 'LABEL=BBone /opt ext3 
   <defaults, maybe> 0 2'. (Sorry I don't remember the exact entry contents)
   5. rebooted, and cried loud: the bone OS didn't start up its USB-IP 
   stack, so I couldn't access it via TCP/IP any more, neither it did some 
   DHCP request on the ethernet interface. It just does its well-known 
   heartbeat pattern with the USRx-LED, so it is running in a certain way.

It's off-line. My question, now, is how to get it connected again on the 
shortest way. For me there are a few possibilities:

   1. Buy and attach UI-devices (screen, keyboard, etc) and do the fix via 
   :0
   2. Install an OS to the SD, boot from there and fix the eMMC fstab
   3. Connect to the serial debug line - dunno what expects me there, 
   but:complicated, as there are 3.3V levels AFAIK

Any recommendation and/or information very appreciated

Max
