After some months of putting it on the back burner, I finally managed to get the BeagleBoard X15 booting with rootfs on eSATA using Debian's modularized kernel, with u-boot-omap 2016.09+dfsg1-1 and linux-image-4.8.0-rc8-armmp-lpae 4.8~rc8-1~exp1. The eSATA port appears to to be powered off of USB, and for some reason only works when compiled in. I haven't tried with an externally powered eSATA device. The workaround seems to be calling "usb start" from u-boot (which reset the board on older versions of mainline u-boot). With linux 4.6, it worked fine with the following compiled as built-ins, without the workaround: CONFIG_OMAP_CONTROL_PHY=y CONFIG_TI_PIPE3=y CONFIG_OMAP_OCP2SCP=y Ideally this would work regardless of being compiled as a module or a built-in, or initializing usb from u-boot... I'm not sure if the issue is in u-boot or linux. But at least this is a useable workaround for now. live well, vagrant
