Running Clojure on the BeagleBone Black

I’ve found a few articles about using the Clojure programming language on the BeagleBone Black. However, all of them I’ve seen gloss over the installation steps. I got Clojure 1.6.0 running on my rev B BeagleBone Black (aka BBB from here on) and I’ve outlined the steps to do it in this post. If you haven’t done anything with your BBB yet, plug it in to a free USB port and open START.htm when it mounts as a drive.
