If you go to
http://beagleboard.org/latest-images

And download the appropriate image for your board,
then install it on a microSD card using Etcher, without any changes.

Then boot the BBB without removing the card, does the BBB run as expected?

In other words, will the BBB run from the image on the microSD card?
