(originally from Ira; she's having mail trouble for some reason)
I am trying to install my new BeagleBoard xM.
I started with https://wiki.linaro.org/Releases/DailyBuilds, but it failed to write to the SD card giving some errors about QEMU (I can try that again if the error messages are important).
Dave Martin also gave me this link https://wiki.linaro.org/Source/ImageInstallation, but it doesn't exist anymore.
So, I tried these instructions: https://wiki.linaro.org/Source/VexpressImageInstallation with http://snapshots.linaro.org/10.11-daily/linaro-headless/20101107/0/images/ta... and http://jameswestby.net:8080/view/Hardware%20Packs/job/linaro-omap3%20hwpack/ (and --dev beagle). The installation of the SD card went ok, but the board doesn't work. During boot I see the printings as in the attached file and it doesn't go any further.
I hope someone can help me with that, because otherwise I am at dead end...
This looks like the system may have booted successfully, and then she's run into bug #652221. Does Alt+F2 pull up a login prompt?
I do recommend having a serial console hooked up somewhere for the beagles - that would sidestep bug #652221 in this case, and is generally useful for troubleshooting.
