Ok, so after a while I figured out how to get some working setup. Here's a rough sketch how:
- retrieve 12.10 image and 12.04 image from http://ynezz.ibawizard.net/beagleboard - extract 12.10 image to sdcard; copy off the contents of the boot partition (p1), the lib/modules and /etc/network/interfaces from the rootfs - extract 12.04 image to sdcard; overwrite previously stored files/folders - that lets you boot 12.04 with a 12.10 kernel and overcomes the 12.04 misconfiguration of uboot - boot into 12.04 - configure usb0 on host computer to allow internet access - run apt-get update/upgrade - copy back the 12.04 boot folder contents to p1 - reboot The result is a correctly booting and working copy of 12.04.05 (as of today). I followed the rest of the instructions from http://ash-wilding.blogspot.co.at/2013/08/tutorial-using-dsp-on-beagleboard.html and got the dummy dsp test working. I'm still doing some testing on the sd card image; as soon as I'm sure it works I will put it somewhere for all those that are interested in "playing around". Am Samstag, 21.
