I remember the first time I loaded Linux. It was a Slackware 0.95 release. 
I must have loaded it a dozen times before I got the hang of it.

I find myself doing the same thing again, this time with various releases 
for the BBB and Machinekit.  
Bone-debian-9.9-machinekit-armhf-2019-08-25-4gb seems to be almost correct 
for my particular problem. Except ...

Today I used config-pin and the results matched up with the CRAMPS.bbio 
file. I'm even able to yank on a few pins and see the effect. Slow 
progress. In earlier version from a few years ago I was able to use the led 
(P9_25) for signaling. No more.

It's very clear that at some fairly recent time a decision was made to muck 
with P9_25. Why?
Further, calling up other configurations will break because 
/sys/devices/platform/ocp/ocp:P9_25_pinmux no longer exists. That isn't 
very nice. For some reason, that for me at least is completely obscure, 
this pin was disabled. Will someone, anyone with a knowledge of the events 
around this pin please comment. I would really like to know when so I can 
load up the release just before that happened.
