No, I am using plain Fedora 21 (not on a virtual machine). The TI Sitara controller on my BBW Rev. A6a is unchanged from when I got it more than 2 years ago. Would it be the case that I need to reflash it or something like that in order to support boot whithout a FAT partition on the microSD card? -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
