BeagleBone green

[Fabricio-Valerio]

Hello, I've started to use a BeagleBone Green Board, I'm following the steps from https://beagleboard.org/getting-started, my PC is connected to the board via USB but a network connection hasn't showed up, and I'm unnable to access the BeagleBone. What can I do?

Thanks in advance.

I've already did that. There is a way to check if I did the proccess correctly?

The image shows what happens when I connect the board via USB.

The Date's are 2016 in that directory.. HOLD the boot button before you plug in power.. Your boot off the eMMC..

The boot button do you mean S2 - USER button?

[RobertCNelson]

Correct user.

Now the board is like that:

The First and the third led are blinking.

[RobertCNelson]

first is heartbeat, 3rd should be microsd... check your device manager..

My device manager:

Is it correct?

[RobertCNelson]

yeah, looks correct, if you have windows 8.1's windows update working it should pull down microsoft's driver..

My windows update was deactivated, now it's running.

This image shows the content when the SD card was in the board.

I've waited 45 minutes and then disconnected the board from my PC, then when I turned it on again, it was with these files again.

And with the SD Card in the board the network adapter showed up and I was able to ping

[RobertCNelson]

Why did you wait 45 Minutes?

Your new image was already running...

But if I remove the SD Card the new image would be still running?
