Description

```
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. download rowboat android 4.0 package
2. use script correctly on ubunut 10.10
3. put micro sdhc card in beagleboard xm rev B and boot

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect android 4.0 "ice cream sandwich" to boot, but see just a black screen
instead

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Im using beagleboard xm rev B, followed instructions to use ubuntu > 8 (im
using ubuntu 10)

Please provide any additional information below.
At first I thought it had something to do with my mouse (a gaming mouse -
cyborg rat 3) or my keyboard (a gaming keyboard - logitech G19). But, I managed
to get Android 2.2 (rowboat) working successfully. So maybe not!

Research direction

Start with the Rowboat Android 4.0 package and its setup script on Ubuntu 10.10, using the reported BeagleBoard-xM rev B boot steps. Reproduce the black screen with the microSDHC card, then compare the Android 4.0 boot behavior with the working Android 2.2 setup. Done means Android 4.0 boots successfully on the reported board.
