Hello everyone. A typical work week. Let’s go over everything. BeagleBoard Rust Imager I have been planning to make BeagleBoard Rust Imager more modular, and extract some of its functionality to other crates. This was to clean up bb-imager (library that powers the GUI and CLI), which now had a lot of platform specific functionality. […]
Hello everyone. A typical week for development. Let’s go over everything. BeagleBoard Rust Imager Pocketbeagle2 MSPM0 support Pocketbeagle2 uses MSPM0 as both EEPROM and ADC. The EEPROM is used to store board-specific information in all BeagleBoard boards for easier debugging and differentiation of different revisions. While the pb2_mspm0 driver supports updating firmware, it isn’t suitable […]

Let’s get started without delay. BeagleConnect Freedom Adventures I started the week by trying to add IEEE802154 subg socket support in MicroPython […]

As mentioned in my New Year’s resolution, I’m going to launch some online training for embedded Linux development. Yes, this training will happen. Interest continues to build. At this point, I’m delaying until the first of our triannual image releases comes out next month to align with the latest software release. I’m also fixing an […]
