I searched a number of different keywords looking for help on this without result, so I decided to post this appeal for help.
I am using a Beaglebone as a development target while our custom board is under design. I used CCS 5.1.1.00033 to build a Generic CortexA8 Device executable for the HelloWorld project. I then downloaded the resulting hello.out file to the root directory of my 'bone using tftp (Host as client, 'bone as server). When I try running the file, all I see on the console is the single word "Killed". Compiler version TI v4.9.1 producing eabi(ELF). More info on request. Help appreciated very much.
