Hi,

I  needed to re-build the Linux kernel (Debian) with the USB power 
management auto suspend feature turned off. So i followed the instruction 
to build the Linux kernel and make a boot-able SD card image for my beagle 
bone black. I followed the instructions at

https://eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/BeagleBone+Black

The procedure is well  written and works! Per the instructions I checked 
out origin/am33x-v4.5 .


My question is , which version of the Linux kernel is stable i.e. should I 
be using 4.5.0 - bone3 or an older version?

The image on the beaglebone website (https://beagleboard.org/latest-images) 
i.e. bone-debian-8.3-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2016-01-24-4gb.img.xz here are the 
versions of the kernel and the RFS.

debian@beaglebone:~$ uname -r
3.8.13-bone70

debian@beaglebone:~$ cat /etc/dogtag
BeagleBoard.org Debian Image 2015-03-01


With the image i built using the instructions at 
https://eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/BeagleBone+Black, i get the following 
versions of the kernel and RFS ( well i can't seem to get a RFS version) . 


debian@arm:~$ uname -r
4.5.0-bone3
debian@arm:~$ cat /etc/dogtag
cat: /etc/dogtag: No such file or directory

Everything seemingly works with 4.5.0-bone3. But I'm wondering what people 
would recommend to use in terms of stability.

BTW, does beaglebone.org endorse a particular procedure for building the 
kernel/bootable SD card image?

Thanks!
-Karina
