Getting Access
Assuming your client machine has access to bonjour/avahi style name resolution:
ssh [email protected]
echo new_host_name > /etc/hostname
Hosts File
/etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 new_host_name
reboot
reboot
ssh root@new_host_name.local
While the unit is rebooting, it's worth watching the lights on the beaglebone to make sure you are rebooting the right one.
Removing Stuff You Don't Need
apt-get remove apache2 xorg
Upgrades
edit /etc/apt/sources.list
- replace wheezy with jessie
- comment out debian.beagleboard.org, there is no jessie-bbb
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free
#deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main contrib non-free
#deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free
#deb-src http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free
#deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main contrib non-free
##deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main contrib non-free
#deb [arch=armhf] http://debian.beagleboard.org/packages jessie-bbb main
#deb-src [arch=armhf] http://debian.beagleboard.org/packages jessie-bbb main
dist-upgrade
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade
apt-get autoremove
This process usually fails a couple times, and even causes the beaglebone to lock up. Expect to reboot and receive errors. The errors usually come with further instructions like apt-get install -f and dpkg --configure -a
The dist-upgrade command will take many hours to complete.
