-First, download an image to your computer. I am using the Debian Image //Jessie IOT((Bigger software components like the X-Window system are missing in images with the suffix IOT, resulting in a small thin image compared to images containing nearly the whole Debian distribution. ))// (bone-debian-8.7-iot-armhf-2017-03-19-4gb.img).+===== Getting the Debian Image ===== 
 +First, download an image to your computer. In this class we will use the Debian Buster IoT((Bigger software components like the X-Window system are missing in images with the suffix IoT, resulting in a small thin image compared to images containing nearly the whole Debian distribution. )) Image  (bone-debian-10.3-iot-armhf-2020-04-06-4gb.img).

-Due to the fact, that the provided images are changing frequently in time and sometimes older images are no more available, this image [[http://kn-pr.tkn.tu-berlin.de/ppl/bone-debian-8.7-iot-armhf-2017-03-19-4gb.img.xz|bone-debian-8.7-iot-armhf-2017-03-19-4gb.img.xz]] is also available at the TKN Web Server.+Download the image [[https://debian.beagleboard.org/images/bone-debian-10.3-iot-armhf-2020-04-06-4gb.img.xz|bone-debian-10.3-iot-armhf-2020-04-06-4gb.img.xz]] from the [[http://beagleboard.org|beagleboard.org]] website.

 +If you are an experienced linux user you can also manually decompress the image and use a tool like ''dd'' to flash the image in 2 commands.
  
  
  
 +===== Boot the BeagleBone Black =====
 +To test, if everything is working correctly you must insert the SD card into the card slot of the BeagleBone Black and boot. During boot, press the "//User Boot//" button (see <imgref image1>). The BeagleBone Black will boot automatically as soon as power is applied.
  
 +**IMPORTANT: First press "//User Boot//" button and then connect the power supply. And NOT the other way round.**
  
-==== Mac OS X ====  +Otherwise the BeagleBone Black will not boot from your SD card, but from the internal eMMC.
-After you have inserted the SD card into the computer the next steps are: +
-  * Open the Terminal App. +
-  * Determine device id of SD card by typing <code bash> sudo diskutil list</code> at the command prompt. This will show a list of any device attached to the Mac: <code bash> +

- +
-  * Unmount the SD card\\ If the SD card contains a file system, you must unmount the SD card: <code bash> +
-sudo diskutil umount /dev/disk2s1 +
-</code> If no file system is installed on the SD card, you don't need to unmount it. +
- +
-  * Now, you can copy the Image to the SD card. Just type <code bash> +
-sudo dd bs=1M if=~/Downloads/debian-wheezy-7.2-armhf-3.8.13-bone30.img of=/dev/disk2 +
-</code> Also keep in mind to exchange disk2 with your device id. The command takes some time. Don't worry. If done, remove the SD card from your computer. +

-=== Boot the BeagleBone Black === +
-To test, if everything is correct you must insert the SD card into the card slot of the BeagleBone Black and boot. During boot, press the "//User Boot//" button (see <imgref image1>). Otherwise the BeagleBone Black will not boot from your SD card, but from the eMMC. Also be sure, that the BeagleBone Black is connected via the Ethernet interface and has access to a DHCP server (a DHCP server is installed at TKN or at home on your DSL router). +
- +
-If the boot process is finished, you can establish a ssh connection to the BeagleBone Black. The needed ssh client is already installed at Linux or Mac OS. If you are using MS Windows you have to install a client by yourself. A popular client is Putty, that can be obtain from http://www.putty.org. +
- +
-Using Linux or Mac OS, open a terminal application and enter the following command: <code bash>ssh debian@beaglebone</code> +
- +
-In the above example a ssh connection to the host **beaglebone** with the userid **debian** will be established. The ssh client will ask you for the password of the user **debian** that is also **debian**. +
- +
-For MS Windows users, please follow the instructions of Putty.  +
  
 +To verify that your Linux image booted successfully, connect to your BeagleBone using one of the described methods in the next wiki page [[network_protocol_programming_lab:2_2_access_general|Accessing the BeagleBone Black]].
