I tested that it works on the BeagleBone Black, and also when board_name is set to A335BONE, it sleeps for 10 seconds and then exits, but I don't have a BeagleBone white to test with. > BTW, the flash-kernel currently in experimental can run a script to > obtain the DTB-Id.

Robert Nelson pointed out that the BeagleBone white has 256MB of ram, and the BeagleBone Black all have 512MB of ram, so /proc/meminfo is a pretty reliable test: memtotal=$(awk '/MemTotal:/{print $2}' /proc/meminfo) test "$memtotal" -lt "300000" && echo white || echo black live well, vagrant
