On the BBGW, this is the signal that wifi isn't connected to an AP. This was a choice made by Seeed for their out of box experience.

/etc/fstab contains the following fields separated by a space or tab:
<file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
<file systems> - defines the storage device (i.e. /dev/sda1).
<dir> - tells the mount command where it should mount the <file system> to.
<type> - defines the file system type of the device or partition to be mounted. Many different file systems are supported. Some examples are: ext2, ext3, reiserfs, xfs, jfs, smbfs, iso9660, vfat, ntfs, swap, and auto. The 'auto' type lets the mount command to attempt to guess what type of file system is used, this is useful for removable devices such as CDs and DVDs.
<options> - define particular options for filesystems. Some options relate only to the filesystem itself. Some of the more common options are:
auto - file system will mount automatically at boot, or when the command 'mount -a' is issued.
noauto - the filesystem is mounted only when you tell it to.
exec - allow the execution binaries that are on that partition (default).
noexec - do not allow binaries to be executed on the filesystem.
ro - mount the filesystem read only.
rw - mount the filesystem read-write.
sync - I/O should be done synchronously.
async - I/O should be done asynchronously.
flush - specific option for FAT to flush data more often, thus making copy dialogs or progress bars to stays up until things are on the disk.
user - permit any user to mount the filesystem (implies noexec,nosuid,

I have let this sit for too long. I don't remember all the steps taken to get the robot running.
using the i/o direct from the beaglebone green input/output seems to fry the board randomly. i had bought some optoisolators but never used them.. too large. The beagel bone io is problematic many cannot be used or mapped correctly.
Starting over.
1) update and upgrade apt get.# apt-get update
# apt-get upgrade
2) found a copy of the robot python files not sure what version they are. copied zip file into cloud 9 directory. (see attached)
# apt-get install unzip
# apt-get install zip
# unzip example.zip
# pip install flask-socketio
third run needs v4l2capture
installing v4l2capture
