Happy to report that this is the first image in a while that has booted 
correctly on my A5A BBB with the USB "gadget" Ethernet.   I'm concerned my 
particular board has USB hardware issues, but that is a problem for another 
day.

The START.htm link worked, the simple flash the LEDs bonescript button on 
the bonescript101 page worked, and cloud9 webpage launched.  Node-red seems 
to work, but still no nod-red-node-beaglebone.  These "extra" nodes would 
seem to be really welcome by newbies.

But, when I tried the fade.js example in cloud9 I got an error:
ocp:P9_14_pinmux was not found under /sys/devices/platform/ocp

While I'm helping my newbie friend,  I've kind of taken on a role as newbie 
"out of the box" experience QA/QC tester.
If you don't want this feedback, I'll stop posting about it.

I only need one working system for him (and a clone of it for me), the BBG 
with lxqt image 2016-04-03 and all upgrades and a few fixes from this forum 
seems more than good enough at this point.

Down the road I'd like to use this old BBB for a PRU project, but I'm a 
long way from being ready to start on this, maybe by then things will have 
settled down to one "best supported" way to use the PRU, all this 
remoteproc vs. uio_pruss makes my head spin, but if I had to choose at the 
moment I'd pick uio_pruss based on what I've found out so far.
