In addition to microSD, the SPI0, UART0 and USB0 interfaces are all boot sources. The node-beagle-boot and BeagleBoot projects will eventually work with PocketBeagle and could boot ramdisk images. They will also expose the device as USB flash storage with a microSD card inserted. > >> Will the USB show up as a serial device or do I have to hard wire the RX and >> TX pins to a USB TTL-232R-3V3 converter? > > Over the usb port, a usb ethernet and usb serial port will show up.. > >> Can I use an OTG Micro USB adapter to plug in a USB ethernet device? > > I don't have that configured yet.. I've done (USB WiFi) it by providing 5V into the USB VIN pin on the expansion headers and a micro-type-B to female-type-A cable. I also used the USB on the expansion pins as a USB host or client. For USB1 on the expansion header, you need to set the role with a change in the device tree as best I could get to work. > > Regards, > > -- > Robert Nelson > https://rcn-ee.com/ > > -- > For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss > --- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "BeagleBoard" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected]. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/beagleboard/CAOCHtYh08Zkc%3D3QR6t7Ff%3DVwqeoKr%3DL%2BLMCoyRz7t%3DfBMiNx4A%40mail.gmail.com. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
