How can I stop or reboot my BBB? Rarely 'halt' or 'reboot' work but mostly they are ignored. They are symlinked to shutdown. I've tried 'init 6' as root and it also is ignored.
I have Ubuntu 14.04 installed, and connect to it via ssh as a normal user, and use sudo when root access is needed. I hate to risk file corruption as a result of unplugging the power. Is there a policy setting somewhere? I've tried to connect to the debug port, but am not having much luck. I may get no response, or get a login prompt, but then every character I type gets treated like it's followed by an 'enter'. I'm using putty with sercfg=8n1N115200, and a DFRobot USB-Serial board set to 3.3v. Only tx, rx, and GND are connected. $ uname -a Linux arm 3.8.13-bone56 #1 SMP Thu Jun 5 03:28:17 UTC 2014 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux Thanks Jim -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
