You don't need the actual cape (or EEPROM) to load *ANY* BeagleBone
cape.  If you do actually have the cape with the properly programmed
EEPROM, the device-tree overlay will be automatically loaded by the
cape manager on boot.  If you don't have the EEPROM (or cape), you can
manually load the overlay at run-time:

If you are just connecting wires to the BeagleBone and not using a
cape, you may find it easier to use the "universal" overlay (which is
what I use for the CRAMPS cape) and the config-pin utility, which lets
you set the pinmux state for pins at run-time:

The universal cape overlay should be installed by default if you start
with one of the Machinekit uSD images.
