Installing or booting FreeBSD 10.2 on BeagleBone Black

Hi,

I´m new to this BBB rev C and new to FreeBSD. I tried to install FreeBSD on
the BBB without any luck. Somehow the BBB boots correctly when using a BBB
"Flasher" image(eg. BBB-eMMC-flasher-2013.09.04) but not when using a
FreeBSD image (I have tried different ones). I have also tried 2 different
microSD cards with no luck.

When I put the microSD card on the BBB and I press and hold the Boot button
and then power up, nothing seems to happen. I also tried without pressing
the Boot button but the I get 3 led lit and nothing else happens.

Any ideas what is wrong?

ps. I am sorry if this is the wrong way to ask. It is my first time doing
this

Regards / Leonardo
