Hello,

I'm trying to install Arch on my BBB rev C. using the described method on 
https://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv7/ti/beaglebone-black  but it can't 
find my zImage, whilst it is present in the boot folder. It hangs while the 
two outer LEDS are on with the following message.  I also posted this 
question on the ArchLinux arm forum 
https://archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=10563 but time is 
paramount for me at the moment.

Checked the md5sum of the downloaded image and it checks out, performed 
sync's between each writing operation. 
I tried multiple changes to the uEnv.txt suggested at 
https://archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=8242&p=44246&hilit=zImage#p44246[
 such 
as:


> uenvcmd=run findfdt; if test $board_name = A335BNLT; then i2c mw 0x24 1 
0x3e; setenv mmcdev 1; mmc dev ${mmcdev}; if mmc rescan; then setenv mmc1 
1;else setenv mmc1 0;fi;fi;setenv mmcdev 0; mmc dev ${mmcdev}; if mmc 
rescan; then setenv mmc0 1;else setenv mmc0 0;fi;if run loaduimage; then 
run loadfdt;run mmcboot;fi;
mmcroot=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rw
loadfdt=ext4load mmc ${mmcdev}:2 ${fdtaddr} /boot/dtbs/${fdtfile}
loaduimage=if ext4load mmc 0:2 ${loadaddr} /boot/zImage; then setenv mmcdev 
0; else setenv mmcdev 1; if test $mmc0 = 1; then setenv mmcroot 
/dev/mmcblk1p2 rw; fi; ext4load mmc 1:2 ${loadaddr} /boot/zImage; fi
mmcboot=echo Booting from mmc ...; run mmcargs; bootz ${loadaddr} - 
${fdtaddr}

I also tried to move the boot folder to an alternative partition formated 
in fat and create the U-boot via:

>
> dd if=boot/MLO of=/dev/mmcblk0 count=1 seek=1 conv=notrunc bs=128k
dd if=boot/u-boot.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 count=2 seek=1 conv=notrunc bs=384k

What am I missing?

Every suggestion is more then welcome.

Best regards
