I am new to BBB. I just started using it for a project I just got involved 
into. I have a BBB RevA5C. The BBB originaly comes with Angstrom on the 
eMMC. The problem I have is that I will need to install OLA on my BBB but 
the eMMC is too small and it will crash, so I need to have the OS running 
from the uSD card. I downloaded at beagleboard.org from the latest firmware 
images the Debian version that says that runs on the BBB without flashing 
the eMMC. I mounted the image on the uSD card and everything was fine. When 
I inserted it to my BBB I had some problems:

1. BBB boot but after a while both middle user LEDs remain on. I cycle 
power the BBB and works fine but everytime I unplug it and plug it back in 
after a few hours to try to work on it I have the same problem again.

2. When I get it running how do I know if I am running the OS on the eMMC 
or the one on the uSD. I used the command "df -h" and what I got was 
something that makes me think I am not on my uSD's OS:

*/dev/mmcblk0p1   96M   70M   27M  73% /boot/uboot*
 */dev/mmcblk1p2  1.7G  1.3G  284M  83% /media/Angstrom*
* /dev/mmcblk1p1   96M   80M   17M  83% /media/BeagleBone*


3. I needed to expand the file system partition (I am using a 16GB Class 4 
uSD card) and used this commands:
     


*cd /opt/scripts/tools/
git pull
sudo ./grow_partition.sh
sudo reboot*
but I get an error telling me that expansion could not be completed and shows 
me the partitions that are available and I see there is a second partition that 
corresponds to my 16GB uSD card but I really don't know what's going on here.

Could anyone help me with this stuff. I am a bit new to linux and I am trying 
to do my best because this project is getting closer. 

Thank you!
