Beaglebone AI booting from SD card issue.

Question

I'm trying to boot Beaglebone AI from SD with the latest image, but all the time getting this: What I'm doing wrong?

chkvsk , I would suggest you use this image ( https://debian.beagleboard.org/images/am57xx-debian-9.9-lxqt-armhf-2019-08-03-4gb.img.xz ) for the BB-AI as Sean_Miller suggested. This is available here ( https://beagleboard.org/latest-images ) the official webpage of Beaglebone.

Your snapshot says 'missing modules'. It might be a bad image. Try flashing the latest image again. PS: In case your image that is pre-flashed iìon the eMMC is one of recent, you might only have to update it manually without going through the hurdle of flashing again.

Either a bad SD card or a bad image. chkvsk What software did you use to build the image with?

I successfully used this image a couple of times now: https://www.element14.com/community/external-link.jspa?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdebian.beagleboard.org%2Fimages%2Fam57xx-debian…

It's from here: https://beagleboard.org/latest-images

I found a lot more is needed to get it rolling as a fully functioning microcontroller with GPIO - for instance, your filesystem may need to grow to meet your SD card capacity. So, I wrote it all down here:

See ya',

Good news. Everything is working no. I used 8GB SD card instead of 4GB. Solution was simple, but not obvious. (Or I just missed something...) Thank you for your help.

Make sure you are using the BB AI image (not the BB Black image). The BB AI image file name starts with am57xx (use the link that Sean gave)

My experience has been that dd will report an error if it runs out of space when writing to "of" if it is a block device.
