 cd /opt/scripts/tools/ 
 git pull 

 Next open: /boot/uEnv.txt 

 Uncomment this line: 

 #cmdline=init=/opt/scripts/tools/eMMC/init-eMMC-flasher-v2.sh 

 At this point your microSD card is set to flash the eMMC.. so shutdown 
 (sudo halt) and get ready to flash stuff..

Ah got everything working nicely :) Thanks for much for the help, Nelson.

I especially like the script located at: 
/opt/scripts/tools/eMMC/beaglebone-black-make-microSD-flasher-from-eMMC.sh

 It seems that the main issue is that the partition that I'm running is 
 read-only... I don't know when I set it as such and chmod'ing the whole 
 thing didn't seem to resolve.

 I guess I'll built my distro over again and try to find out at which point 
 I made it read-only

 but perhaps that explains how flashing used to work with Angstrom? I 
 wasn't able to see the same architecture happening over on the new Debian

 I did find */opt/scripts/tools/beaglebone-black-eMMC-flasher.sh *but I'm

 It seems to me that when the boot button is pressed, the BBB mounts and 
 boots from the eMMC-flasher partition. Somehow this script is executed (I 
 couldn't find the relevant systemd process) and it copies over everything 
 on that same partition over to the eMMC and then powers off. 

 Next time, I boot from the eMMC, how does the script knows to not execute, 
 seeing as it can't really copy the eMMC to the eMMC... How does all this 
 work?

 Thanks,
 Louis
