+===== Setting static IP for ethernet =====
+  * ubuntu with shared ethernet connection runs a dhcp server by default on 10.42.x.x and assigns the ethernet card 10.42.0.1.
+  * so the perhaps incorrect but easy way to get internet with static IP is on the beagle:
+    * get name of connection: ''connmanctl services'' You'll get a response that will have something like: ''ethernet_6cecebabbc6a_cable''
+    * then assign your static IP. This will be a persistent setting. Example:
+<code>
+sudo connmanctl config ethernet_6cecebabbc6a_cable --ipv4 manual 10.42.0.2 255.255.255.0 10.42.0.1 --nameservers 8.8.8.8 1.1.1.1
+</code>

+===== Network tips =====
+//see [[https://gist.github.com/kylemanna/6930087|Connmanctl Cheat Sheet]] for connecting Wi-Fi card//
+===== Always booting from SD card =====
+  - Manually boot from the MicroSD (hold down the ''user/boot'' button).
+  - run ''sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk1 bs=1M count=1'' to write zeros over the first 1MB of the eMMC
+  - run ''sync''
+  - run ''sudo shutdown now''
+  - disconnect and then reconnect power
