Obtain ALL IO pins comlete guide.

[Claudio La Rosa]

Ok, I'll fool.

Is there a *complete* and *clear* guide on how to get all the IO pins free ?

I installed Debian on SD, but the uEnv.txt file is not the same as that on eMMC.
I do not understand how to do it. Linux versions are all different.

This takes a long time and I can not devote myself to the real project.

Alternatively, is there a possibility to install Windows IoT s BeagleBone?

in /boot/uEnv.txt I have:

(I decomment the line dtb=am335x-boneblack-hdmi-overlay.dtb)

But I do not use the p8.20...p8.25 pin.

How can I fix this problem?

I'm trying and trying again but I can not get it running.
If I disable the eMMC from /boot/uEnv.txt in SD card, I get wrong behavior on other pins, as if I disable other pins.
