So, after spending a lot of time struggling with this, I finally managed to go back to where I was before: i.e., booting, but not able to mount the rootfs. Here's how my SDCard looks now: Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 14.9 GiB, 16021192704 bytes, 31291392 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x00000000 Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/mmcblk0p1 * 63 144584 144522 70.6M c W95 FAT32 (LBA) /dev/mmcblk0p2 145408 1144831 999424 488M 83 Linux /dev/mmcblk0p3 1144832 1394687 249856 122M 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/mmcblk0p4 1394688 4128767 2734080 1.3G 83 Linux In order to finally get a "working" system, I used Arch[GNU/]Linux's scripts/u-boot/MLO found at <http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv7/ti/beagleboard-xm>. I don't know why, but I couldn't make the Fedora ones work with this setup... Anyway, as I said, I'm back to a non-functional system (that, at least, shows me errors when booting Linux). It is still unable to find my root file system by LABEL or UUID, and it still shows me *lots* of errors/warnings when booting Linux. My question now is: does Fedora 21 really work on a BeagleBoard-xM rev C? I'm starting to believe it doesn't (or that my board is somehow problematic/broken). Any more ideas? BTW, the uEnv.txt file that I am using is: mmcargs=setenv bootargs console=ttyO2,115200n8 root=LABEL=_/ ro rootwait cgroup_disable=memory fixrtc earlyprintk mmcload=ext2load mmc 0:2 0x80000000 uInitrd-3.17.4-301.fc21.armv7hl; ext2load mmc 0:2 0x88000000 dtb-3.17.4-301.fc21.armv7hl/omap3-beagle-xm-ab.dtb; ext2load mmc 0:2 0x88080000 vmlinuz-3.17.4-301.fc21.armv7hl uenvcmd=run mmcload; run mmcargs; bootz 0x88080000 0x80000000 0x88000000 And I am not using boot.cmd/boot.scr anymore.
