Good point, we were going to try that again, just did:

   25  cd /opt/scripts/tools/
   26  git pull
   27  sudo ./update_kernel.sh --ti-rt-channel --lts-4_4

debian@beaglebone:~$ uname -r
4.4.8-ti-rt-r22

So far, usb networking/flash/serial seem to work fine on my linux box..
(with 4.1.x-rt serial would fail).. I'll test windows 10 in a bit..

NM... it just hardlocked while typing this email... back to non-rt and more
testing. ;)

On initial first bootup.  Connman is so fast, wifi is already up before our
boot script has time to generate the ssh key's..  After our key's are
generated the ssid get's changed..

And on the x15, when you stick a usb wifi adapter is shows "BeagleBone".. ;)

Connman is used by default for:

eth0/wlan0

/etc/network/interfaces is ignored except for the the usb0 values which are
used by the boot script to setup the usb0 network...

*Connman could be used for usb0, but there is no way to reserve
"192.168.7.2"...
