After the build process is over, the image will be available inside the build/tmp/deploy/images/beaglebone/ directory. There are many files, but the Texas Instrument BSP generates a ready-to-use SD card image.
The file we want to use is core-image-sato-beaglebone.wic.
Make sure you point to the right device and double check to not write in your hard disk.
In order to copy the core-image-sato image to the SD card, we should use the dd utility, as follows:
$ sudo dd if=core-image-sato-beaglebone.wic of=/dev/sdX bs=1M
After copying the content to the SD card, insert it into the SD card slot, connect the HDMI cable, and power on the machine. It should boot nicely.
