Overview¶
Getting started¶
The starting experience for all Beagles has been made to be as consistent as is possible. For any of the Beagle Linux-based open hardware computers, visit our getting started guide.
Getting support¶
BeagleBoard.org products and open hardware designs are supported via the on-line community resources. We are very confident in our community’s ability to provide useful answers in a timely manner. If you don’t get a productive response within 24 hours, please escalate issues to Jason Kridner (contact info available on the About Page). In case it is needed, Jason will help escalate issues to suppliers, manufacturers or others. Be sure to provide a link to your questions on the community forums as answers will be provided there.
Diagnostic tools¶
Best to be prepared with good diagnostic information to aide with support.

Community resources¶
Please execute the board diagnostics, review the hardware documentation, and consult the mailing list and IRC channel for support. BeagleBoard.org is a “community” project with free support only given to those who are willing to discussing their issues openly for the benefit of the entire community.
