Trouble creating a BeagleBone Static IP

[Lidia Toscano]

I am totally a nenwbie to BBB -  I am having trouble connecting it to my pc through ethernet.  I am using Angstrom.  I've tried following the instructions here: http://derekmolloy.ie/set-ip-address-to-be-static-on-the-beaglebone-black/    but then I run into lots of errors:

login as: root

ro...@beaglebone.local's password:

root@beaglebone:~# ls -al

total 64

root@beaglebone:~#

I cannot find the ethernet_c8a030ab323a_cable# Derek speaks about, I cannot fint the /etc/network/interfaces to try to edit the file indicated by Derek.  

Any idea why I am getting those errors?  You help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Lidia,

I think you got a corrupted file.

Install your SO again and follow what Robert says

Here the syntax:

sudo connmanctl config <service> --ipv4 manual <ip_addr> <netmask> <gateway> --nameservers <dns_server>

run:

debian@beaglebone:~$ connmanctl services

*AO Wired                ethernet_74daea0a4b52_cable

sudo connmanctl config ethernet_74daea0a4b52_cable --ipv4 manual 30.0.0.39 255.0.0.0 30.0.0.1 --nameservers 8.8.8.8

You don't need to edit the file /etc/network/interfaces

Just run connmanctl as above.
