I am attempting to do the following and I am feel like I am close:
Boot Beagle bone Black Rev C from USB SSD drive into build root.
Automatically execute autorun.sh from the USB SSD to apply Ubuntu.img.gz 
image file.
Reboot the Beagle Bone Black into Ubuntu.
Note: I want the capability to restore the Beagle Bone Black without using 
a micro SD card.  I am really new to Linux.

Problems:

I can successfully boot from the USB hard drive by executing manually the 
following commands from the u-boot prompt, but have not successfully 
automated these commands.  Can I update u-boot to automatically attempt USB 
boot?
usb start
bootpart=0:1
bootdir=/
fatload usb 0:1 ${loadaddr} /uImage
fatload usb 0:1 ${fdtaddr} /am335x-boneblack.dtb
setenv bootargs console=${console} ${optargs}
bootm ${loadaddr} - ${fdtaddr}
Buildroot is automatically looking for the micro SD card due to the 
/etc/init.d/S99autorun file.  How do I edit this file?

I downloaded the files for Buildroot through the following link:

I have read the following articles, but have been unable to put all of the 
pieces together.
