Sean,
I remember I modified the TechLab IMG (below) for GamePup to make uSD image 
work with display and not sure I had originally tested with IOT.

My original IMG was (like you) from last spring on Pocket Beagle before I 
had Game Pup and Tech Lab.
I am as confused as you so I am starting with workshop IMG to view and 
understand the process used to make an embedded IMG work.

Started at http://beagleboard.org/techlab then switched between capes.

I have been watching and reading the stuff at the link (above) to
Embedded Apprentice Linux Engineer seminars



Also I will order another PB for mating to GamePup exclusively for 
re-flashing tests.
