Because you were not doing it right. Your out file ( of= ) was to a raw block device, instead of a file onto a file system. A block device that does not exist on a stock Beaglebone black I might add. Secondly, you specified a block count for the second copy( device to be cloned I assume ) which gains you nothing, as the image is still 3.9G in size. Which would not be a problem if you cloned to a file, onto a file system. So if you did all that to potentially save you some time, you'd be better off cloning using tar on the rootfs, and then dd on the MBR to get your first and second stage boot loaders.
