**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Feb 05 02:59:59 2016 Feb 05 09:23:20 blahdeblah, theer should be debian based images for the beaglebone black ... grab one, write it to SD, fish /lib/modules and /lib/firmware out of the rootfs, format the rootfs partiton, unpack ubuntu core into it and copy the two dirs in place .... that should be enough to get you started Feb 05 10:30:09 ogra_: Thanks - any idea about kernel? Ubuntu core doesn't seem to come with one. Feb 05 10:30:27 just use the debian one, that should be fine Feb 05 10:31:07 (you can indeed also use an ubuntu kernel or even upgrade to one later, but setting up bootloader and kernel is much more complex than just replacing the rootfs) **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Feb 06 02:59:58 2016
