Hello Chris, thanks for the information. I'm quite sure that I have seen some web pages that use the FlySwatter2 together with a BBB. But If you had some bad experience, I'll not recommend the FlySwatter2 or some OpenOCD based debugger for the BBB in the next time. As a positive report: I have a quite stable setup with the Segger J-Link EDU. The EDU is a affordable variant with the disadvantage that it must only be used for non-commericial purpose.
