Hi all,

First off, I'm a newbe to the BBG, and more familiar with electronic hardware than software programming but thought I would give it a go.

I have a BBG which I want to flash image with BBB-eMMC-flasher-debian-7.8-lxde-4gb-armhf-2015-03-01-4gb.img.xz, and i has configure the uEnv.txt to uncomment the line, but when I reboot the board  the usr led not blinking just D4 only light up. can anyone help this issue

thanks ...

"Why" do you want to install "debian-7.8-lxde-4gb-armhf-2015-03-01" ?

At the time, the BeagleBone Green, was populated with the "latest"
eMMC module from the memory Manufacture. This module used a newer
spec of eMMC we had not seen before.. Thus to support the BBG, we had
to patch our linux kenrel to make it work. This hardware patch made
it into our kernel repo on "2016-06-15".. So a year and half "after"
that image.

So: "Why"... Why do you "need" to install that version? It can be
done, but it will take some effort on your behalf, or you could just
use a newer image..

Regards,
