I haven't gotten a lot of traction when I've asked to update the wiki (could reasonably have been nobody wanted my changes!). I think your best bet would be to post here and notify developers of your requested changes. The theory being your updates will be considered valuable and other people will get sick of updating the wiki for you and give you access. In practice, I've found that anything I wanted to change is already on the site and it's just not as visible as one would like. Something I noticed, though, is the Beaglebone page says some functionality is only available on current and that hasn't been true for a while. :-/ By the way, my previous message assumed you were running a FreeBSD Host. You can download and dd the image in GNU/Linux (and technically on Windows too), but to do kernel development, you'll need a FreeBSD machine with at least 10.1-Release on it. I've run a development image in a VM before, but VirtualBox SD card-reader drivers and enabling COM ports can be tricky. I typically use a PC-BSD host (physical and virtual) as it gets you up and running with a GUI machine without too much headache. Cheers, Russ
