Andreas Josef Reichel was born in 1982 in Munich, Bavaria, to Josef and Ursula. He went to an elementary school from 1989 to 1993 and continued with lower secondary education for 4 years and started with middle school in 1996. In 1999, he finished school as the best graduate of the year. From 2000 to 2001, he went to Fachoberschule and got his subject-linked university entrance qualification, with which he began to study Physical Technology at the University of Applied Sciences in Munich. After two semesters, he got his preliminary diploma and began with general studies of Physics at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich in 2003. In 2011, he completed Dipl.-Phys. (Univ.) in experimental physics with the THz characterization of thin semiconductor films in photonics and optoelectronics. Now, he is working on his dissertation to Dr. rer. nat. on plasma etching processes for semiconductors at the Walter Schottky Institute of the Technische Universität München in Garching. In his spare time, he has been learning programming languages such as BASIC, Pascal, C/C++, x86 and x64 Assembler, as well as HTML, PHP, JavaScript, and the database system MySQL and has been programming since he was 13 years old. Since 1995, he has been an active hobby musician in different accordion ensembles and orchestras. He also loves to learn about languages and drawing, and he began practicing Chinese martial arts in 2012. He invests most of his free time in hobby electronic projects and family genealogical research. He was the co-author of Charge carrier relaxation and effective masses in silicon probed by terahertz spectroscopy, S. G. Engelbrecht, A. J. Reichel, and R. Kersting, Journal of Applied Physics.

Installing and configuring the slave nodes

Configuring the slave nodes is actually the same as configuring the master node, except that we do not need a Samba server on it. Instead, we have to configure the automount to mount the share of the master node. Also, we have to modify the network configuration.

Creating the slave node's installation image

The slave nodes will not be booted from external microSD cards. Instead, the operating system will be booted from internal eMMC memory. To install Ubuntu into the internal eMMC, you can create an installation card exactly as described for the master node. The only difference is that your memory card must match the internal eMMC memory. Let's assume that you have the old BBB version with 2 GB internal memory. Then, you need a 2 GB installation image that is already provided with this book. On your host environment, copy the decompressed .img image file onto the microSD card by issuing the same command as the one described for the master node:
