Once in a blue moon one of my beaglebones will get into a state where it has power (the power LED is lit), but it is not booted. Normally this would be fine, just hit the power button to reset. But in this weird state the power button does nothing. The reset button does nothing. I checked the power and reset button pins on the header, the power was low, the reset was high. The only way to get the board out of this state was to pull the 5V power. I'm using a KL16 on a cape to do a watchdog on the BB, and reboot it via power and/or reset buttons on the header if the BB stops sending checkins over uart. This has been working great, except for the rare case where the board ends up in this state where the power and reset buttons are not functioning. Any ideas how the BB could get into this state, and if there's any other way to force a reboot other than physically pulling the 5v power? Thanks, JR
