for what it's worth, I just booted a Ubuntu 13.10 liveDVD iso and after plugging in the BBB saw both the flash media device and the usb network. I was also greated with the BBB web server pages after entering 192.168.7.2 into Firefox.
What this means is that you can download the Ubuntu ISO file to your Windows box and use VMWare player to boot it inside of Windows and should see all of the BBB stuff. if you install the free VMWare player on your Windows box, you'll need to setup a fake virtual machine and for the CDROM device set it to the Ubuntu ISO file. I know it's a bit to go through but it also leaves you with a platform to verify things and if you want you can install that Ubuntu into the Virtual Machine and have a development platform without Windows getting in the way. Or not. Doug -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
