Thanks. The script created a BOOT partition when supplying the --enable-fat-partition command. However, for some reason, it created an ext4 partition called BOOT. When I plug in the BBB to my computer via USB, it does not show up.
The FAT partition was very useful to supply host drivers and applications with the board. Am Freitag, 1.
