Hi

I have bought a Beaglebone Black. As per the Getting started instruction, i have connected my Beagle with Computer(Ubuntu Running) through USB.

When i tried to launch http://192.168.7.2 in Firefox, it is NOT displaying something like "Your board is connected! BBB SNo..." as mentioned in Getting started page.

Instead it is opening http://192.168.7.2/ide.html, where i can edit the sample LED blink code available and able to run on the Beagle successfully.

Note: I have updated the eMMC OS to latest "Debian Buster IoT Image 2020-04-06". Even before updating this OS also, the Connected message did not come.

Why the Connected message is not coming for me?

Please suggest.

Thanks!

Newer images, removed the useless getting started page.. Instead it
loads up into the IDE, with a similar setup..

Thanks Robert Nelson.

1. In the getting started page, except Step 1, all other steps are not turning to green. Still after updated the image to latest "Debian Buster IoT Image 2020-04-06", Enabled the network connection through USB and Browsed the beagle through 192.168.7.2 in firefox.

2. Similarly, in the http://192.168.7.2/ide.html page, i am getting a message "Please upgrade your software".

Do i need to do some thing here to clear these two concerns?

I am little confused here. Before starting my work whether these two points should be cleared or not.

Please suggest.

That's just an FAQ: https://beagleboard.org/upgrade showing up to
