<h1 id="update">Update board with latest software</h1>
<p>This step may or may not be necessary, depending on how old a software image you already
have, but executing this, the longest, step will ensure the rest will go as smooth as possible.
</p>
<h3>Step #0.A: Download the latest software image</h3>
<p>Download the lastest Debian image from <a href="https://beagleboard.org/latest-images">beagleboard.org/latest-images</a>. The "IoT" images provide more free disk space if you don't need to use a graphical user interface (GUI).</p>
<p><small><b>Note:</b> Due to sizing necessities, this download may take 30 minutes or more.</small></p>
<p>The Debian distribution is provied for the boards. The file you download will have an .img.xz extension. This is a compressed sector-by-sector image of the SD card.</p>
<img src="static/images/download-latestimage.png" style="display:block;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;" width="75%" />
<h3>Step #0.B: Install SD card programming utility</h3>
<p>Download and install <a target="_blank" href="https://www.balena.io/etcher/">balenaEtcher</a>.</p>
<img src="static/images/download-etcher.png" style="display:block;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;" width="75%" /><br />
<img src="static/images/install-etcher.png" style="display:block;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;" width="75%" /><br />
<!--
<p>Some general help on programming SD cards can be found on the <a target="_blank" href="http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromImgFiles">Ubuntu Image Writer page</a>.
-->
<h3>Step #0.C: Connect SD card to your computer</h3>
<p>Use your computer's SD slot or a USB adapter to connect the SD card to your computer.</p>
<h3>Step #0.D: Write the image to your SD card</h3>
<p>Use Etcher to write the image to your SD card. Etcher will transparently decompress the image on-the-fly before writing it to the SD card.</p>
<img src="static/images/write-latestimage.png" style="display:block;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;" width="75%" />
<h3>Step #0.E: Eject the SD card</h3>
<p>Eject the newly programmed SD card.</p>
<h3>Step #0.F: Boot your board off of the SD card</h3>
<p>Insert SD card into your (powered-down) board, hold down the USER/BOOT button (if using Black) and apply power, either by the USB cable or 5V adapter.</p>
<p>If using an original BeagleBone or PocketBeagle, you are done.</p>
<p>If using BeagleBone Black, BeagleBone Blue, BeagleBone AI or other board
with on-board eMMC flash and you desire to write the image to your on-board
eMMC, you'll need to follow the instructions at
<a href="http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian#Flashing_eMMC">http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian#Flashing_eMMC</a>.
When the flashing is complete, all 4 USRx LEDs will be steady on or off. The latest Debian
flasher images automatically power down the board upon completion. <em>This
can take up to 45 minutes.</em> Power-down your board, <em>remove the SD card</em>
and apply power again to finish.</p>
<h1>Start your Beagle</h1>
<h3><em>If any step fails, it is recommended to update to the <a href="#update">latest
software image</a> using the instructions above.</em></h3>
<a id="step1">
<h3><img class="steps" src="static/images/btn_step1.gif" />
<strong>Power and boot</strong></h3></a>
<div>
<p>Most Beagles include a USB cable, providing a convenient way
to provide both power to your Beagle and connectivity to your computer.
If you provide your own, ensure it is of good quality.
<!--
You'll connect
the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB" class="external">"type-B" plug</a> of
the USB cable to your Beagle and the "type-A" plug to your computer.
-->
<p>Alternatively, your Beagle may have a barrel jack. The voltage should be 5V
except for BeagleBoard-X15 and BeagleBone Blue which use 12V.
</p>
<em>Note that BeagleBoard-X15 must
always be powered by a 12V adapter with a barrel jack.</em></p>
<p>If you are using your Beagle with an <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital" class="external">SD (microSD) card</a>, make sure
it is inserted ahead of providing power. Most Beagles include programmed
on-board flash and therefore do not require an SD card to
be inserted.
</p>
<p></p>
<p>You'll see the power (PWR or ON) LED lit steadily. Within a minute or so, you should see the other LEDs blinking in their default configurations.
Consult the Quick Start Guide (QSG) or System Reference Manual (SRM) for your board to locate these LEDs.
</p>
<ul>
<li>USR0 is typically configured at boot to blink in a heartbeat pattern</li>
<li>USR1 is typically configured at boot to light during SD (microSD) card accesses</li>
<li>USR2 is typically configured at boot to light during CPU activity</li>
<li>USR3 is typically configured at boot to light during eMMC accesses</li>
<li>USR4/WIFI is typically configured at boot to light with WiFi (client) network association (<em>BeagleBone Blue and BeagleBone AI only</em>)</li>
</ul>

<a id="step2">
<h3><img class="steps" src="static/images/btn_step2.gif" /><strong>Enable a network connection</strong></h3></a>
<p>If connected via USB, a network adapter should show up on your computer. Your Beagle should be running a DHCP server that will provide your computer with an IP address of either 192.168.7.1 or 192.168.6.1, depending on the type of USB network adapter supported by your computer's operating system. Your Beagle will reserve 192.168.7.2 or 192.168.6.2 for itself.</p>
<p>If your Beagle includes WiFi, an access point called "BeagleBone-XXXX" where "XXXX" varies between boards. The access point password defaults to "BeagleBone". Your Beagle should be running a DHCP server that will provide your computer with an IP address in the 192.168.8.x range and reserve 192.168.8.1 for itself.</p>
<p>If your Beagle is connected to your local area network (LAN) via either Ethernet or WiFi, it will utilize <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicast_DNS" class="external">mDNS</a> to broadcast itself to your computer. If your computer supports mDNS, you should see your Beagle as beaglebone.local. <em>Non-BeagleBone boards will utilize alternate names. Multiple BeagleBone boards on the same network will add a suffix such as beaglebone-2.local.</em></p>
<p>The below table summarizes the typical addresses and should dynamically update to indicate an active connection.</>
<p><small><b>Note:</b> You must "load unsafe scripts" or load <a href="http://beagleboard.org/getting-started">this page</a> without HTTPS security for the automatic detection to work.</small></p>

<p>Perfect for high-school seniors or freshman univerisity level text, consider using "Bad to the Bone"</p>
<h3><a href="https://bbb.io/cookbook" class="external">BeagleBone Cookbook</a></h3>
<p>A lighter treatment suitable for a bit broader audience without the backgrounders on
programming and electronics, consider "BeagleBone Cookbook"
</p>
<h3><a href="https://bbb.io/ebb" class="external">Exploring BeagleBone</a> and <a href="https://bbb.io/elp" class="external">Embedded Linux Primer</a></h3>
<p>To take things to the next level of detail, consider "Exploring BeagleBone"
which can be considered the missing software manual and utilize
"Embedded Linux Primer" as a companion textbook to provide a strong
base on embedded Linux suitable for working with any hardware that will
run Linux.
