Thank you, Robert.

I stumbled a bit getting the SD card to accept the image file.  I ended up 
formatting my 8 GB card as NTFS with a 1024 block size prior to writing the 
image via Win32DiskImager.  The card became unreadable in windows once the 
image was written.  I took a chance and installed it in the BBB anyway. 
 When I applied power, the board began reflashing.  I'm up and running now. 
Thank you for the pointer.


Does anyone know why the card becomes unreadable once the .img file is 
written?  Is this normal behavior?
