Hello William, thank you for the prompt response. First of all, I have to say that I have very little experience with the device tree, although I did use dtb-rebuilder to enable SPI back in the linux v3.8 days. So, my first request is: please point me to documentation that is current and helpful for dealing with the device tree.
*I have now retested with only one change. If I include "dtb=am335x-boneblack-emmc-overlay.dtb" the boot fails.* This feels like a bug that would be a problem for any BBGW user who has a need for more than a few gpios. I started with "BBB-blank-debian-8.6-console-armhf-2016-11-27-2gb.img" and then: - - apt-get update - apt-get install git - update_kernel.sh --bone-rt-kernel --lts-4_4 - reboot - apt-get upgrade - reboot - apt-get install bb-wl18xx-firmware firmware-ti-connectivity connman - at this point I setup wifi and it was working correctly - apt-get install avahi-daemon avahi-autoipd avahi-utils hostapd curl build-essential I was rebooting after each significant step and all was working correctly. I copied this to a uSD card and hen I made the change to uEnv.txt and rebooted. The "hearbeat" was running, but nothing else was functioning. If I restore from the uSD (without the change to uEnv.txt) it all works. In /boot/dtbs I find: cd5@bbgw:/boot/dtbs/4.4.38-bone-rt-r14$ ls -l *bonegreen* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 54771 Dec 12 02:22 am335x-bonegreen-overlay.dtb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 57391 Dec 12 02:22 am335x-bonegreen-wireless.dtb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 54742 Dec 12 02:22 am335x-bonegreen.dtb Thanks, Tim -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
