[mel-discuss] BeagleBoard-XM booting problem

[Govind Mukundan]

Hi Scott / Sean,

Thanks for your replies and a thousand apologies for the silly goof up :).
I must have made some mistake while renaming the uIimage file. So now once
I loaded the proper image, I was able to successfully boot and log in to
linux!

By the way, does this build have a GUI - I couldnt see anything on the DVI
monitor (unlike the default angstrom builds) - I could only see output on
the UART terminal ?
