BeagleBone Black Allstar Official Release

Aloha,

Hey Ramon,

Maybe you could post a link or something to let us know where you

got the heatsink. I’m using the steel cases at Logic Supply for my
BBB as I will be putting my BBB’s in some spots with a lot of high
voltage switch gear so I was wondering if there would be any
clearance problems. I’m in Hawaii and sometimes it can get a little
warm and was wondering about the heat of the processor myself.

Doug,

        Just wanted to congratulate you on your efforts in porting

Allstar to the BeagleBone Black. I just got my BBB board
today and have a node up and running with no issues. Took me
about 3 hours to set up, but mostly because I realized the
BBB uses a microSD card, which I didn’t have one on hand. I
had to go to Walmart and get one because it is close and
open at 9:30PM.

        I am using the simpleusb.conf, which I have never used, but

works fine.

        The TI chip does get a bit hot, so I put a heat sink on it

to help.
