New BeagleBone Images Avaialble

Thanks to the tireless efforts of Robert C. Nelson, Machinekit uSD images for the BeagleBone are now part of the regular Debian image build cycle.  The first image is available now, with updates expected about every two weeks.

I will update my Machinekit page as soon as I get a chance, but for now just follow along with any of the BeagleBone getting started guides to put the xz compressed image onto a uSD card.  Once you're running the image, you can easily perform updates using the standard Debian package management tools.

Many thanks to Robert for building the images (and the required Xenomai kernel), everyone working on the Machinekit project for the packages, and to all of you who use these tools to drive your machines.
