Have you tried booting with the USB cable not plugged into your computer? I've never tried using both the USB gadget and wired Ethernet at the same time.

Then I don't have to keep editing the config files on the Bone, or Pi etc. On Monday, July 18, 2016 at 8:52:08 AM UTC-5, [email protected] wrote: > > I downloaded the newest image > (bone-debian-8.4-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2016-05-13-4gb) and I am now trying to > configure the eth0 to be able to use the BBB on our network. > I can connect to it over USB link. > I changed the /etc/network/interfaces file to the content shown below, but > after reboot the BBB gets address 169.254.129.50 (an address assigned after > failed DHCP assignment attempt?) > After some searching, I have the impression that this is because the usb0 > link uses dhcp, and the BBB is also using this on eth0, although I tell it > to use 'static' in the interfaces file. > If I restart the eth0 link using 'ifdown eth0' and 'ifup eth0' then it > does get the right ip address, and I can ssh to it over the eth0 interface. > But this is not really a good solution, and I have the impression that some > other network settings, (dns, ...) are still misconfigured. > > I tried deleting the usb0 link from /etc/interfaces, and disabling the > /opt/scripts/boot/autoconfigure_usb0.sh script, but that didn't help either. > Is there any way I can force it to use a static IP address on eth0? > > -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
