Hi , I removed the EEPROM on my BBB (Rev C). Than the board isn't starting (I also didn't get any messages from the UART 0 debug port...) I tried to apply this patch and recompile u-boot: 0002-NFM-Production-eeprom-assume-device-is-BeagleBone-Bl.patch

But it's still doesn't work... Is this patch should resolve my issue? or it's not enough?

In addition, Will the above patch work if i'll also issue this patch :

https://patches.linaro.org/patch/94800/

It says it makes all the EEPROM reading return 0's

Sorry lack of a physical eeprom has not been tested...

Any plans to try it out? It would probably be very useful for the community... :)

Nah, that'll create other issues. I won't help support boards that can't 'identify' themselves on boot up.

Okay, I've create a patch to make this work. Should I send it over to you? Maybe someone will find it helpful... ?
