Beaglebone Black angstrom image

[Sujit Singh]

I downloaded an angstrom image on my sd card and booted my BBB with this image but the BBB is not loading the angstrom image and its keep on working on the same Debian image. Do I need to delete the Debian image first in order to load the angstrom image..? Thanks in advance

Which Angstrom image did you download and from where?

This should force your BeagleBone to boot from microSD: while holding
down the boot button, apply power to the board. Continue to hold the
'boot' button until the USR LEDs begin to flash.

There also this tip from the eLinux wiki:

I'm a big fan of always having a USB-to-serial adapter handy:

It makes it really easy to observe what is happening with the
bootloader (u-boot).

A very big thank you, it really worked although I have to forcefully boot the microsd card at every instance I'm connecting my bbb. By the way, here is the angstrom file which I downloaded :Angstrom-Cloud9-IDE-GNOME-eglibc-ipk-v2012.12-beaglebone-2013.09.05
