    Re: Booting beagleboard

    In order to be a little more helpful, I'd need to know a little more about what you have in hands.
    You can start with the type of BB you have, what distro you selected amongst the many ones available.

    Out of what you have posted, I see you have successfully come across the process of downloading and installing a distro in the SD. In case you didn't miss anything, what you're looking at is the opening of a simple terminal emulation program called "minicom", freely available for download but not usually found in BB distros.

    As I said, I need some more info to help.
