Are there 2GB Linux images available?  I have an older B-version and would like to use it in a small application.

The 'console' versions are smallest, the image file is only about 1Gb.
You'll only have ssh (or local serial console) access to your BBB
though.

I *thought* an IOT (internet of things) version would fit in 2Gb but
it looks as if the latest ones don't.

Yes, 2 GB Linux Images are available but there is the limitations for the speed and performance. You cannot use it for complex applications.

However, if you are wishing for the small application, it would be enough for the older BBB version.

Have you tried the BeagleBoard image site. There are a few there but a bit dated.

Cheers,

Jon

Just grab any of the current variants..

Only the "console" images will fit on the 2GB eMMC, everything else
just use a microSD..
