For some reason I can't manage to boot a BBB after flashing Debian 8.7 (Jessie) 2017-03-19 onto an SD card. The following command was used to flash the SD card:
xz -dkc bone-debian-8.7-iot-armhf-2017-03-19-4gb.img.xz > /dev/sdc Has something related to flashing/booting changed compared to previous releases? I have the same issue with bone-debian-8.7-iot-armhf-2017-03-26-4gb.img.xz On Wednesday, March 22, 2017 at 8:16:44 AM UTC+1, Jason Kridner wrote: > > > https://jkridner.wordpress.com/2017/03/22/2017-03-19-beaglebone-debian-images-published/ > > > Debian 8.7 (Jessie) 2017-03-19 images are now published on > https://beagleboard.org/latest-images, but this version isn’t likely to > live more than a few weeks before we push yet another.
