I am trying to set a static IP on my new BBB. The instructions I found here
http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:Terminal_Shells say 'modify your /etc/network/interfaces, or make a new file.' I downloaded the file at https://s3.amazonaws.com/angstrom/demo/beaglebone/BBB-eMMC-flasher-2013.09.04.img.xz and the flash worked, but now the /etc/network/interfaces file is gone. I made a new one. It looks like this: root@beaglebone:~# cat /etc/network/interfaces iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.7.4 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.7.1 (I added the gateway line when it didn't work without it.) I can still get to my board via USB, which is fine as a backup, but for my application i need to get a static IP over eth0. Is Angstrom not using /etc/network/interfaces anymore? My network is set up to use 192.168.7.*. If I can't use that file how do I set a static IP? -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
