Beagle board offers a very user-friendly way to explore the
capabilities of the A8 architecture, as well as the C64x DSP, for
which a free compiler and open source codecs are available. For
development on-the-go, the board can be powered by a laptop's USB
port, and it comes with an "unbrickable" boot ROM, he observed.

default is to boot from NAND flash, MC/SD, USB, then serial. But,
the 'user' button boots from NAND flash last," Kridner said."
