Is there no support for the blue?

According to this page it says bbb is supported. Does that mean black is included and not Blue?
I don't have a blue with me, so couldn't add support for it. bbb stands for beaglebone black, which is supported.
Does it have same pin mux as black, if yes, It is a 2 min job.
Please post the output of the following command
cat /proc/device-tree/model
I really don't know. Here's what's produced when I cat:
debian@beaglebone:/var/lib/cloud9$ cat /proc/device-tree/model
TI AM335x BeagleBone Bluedebian@beaglebone:/var/lib/cloud9$
Can you upload the output on something like paste bin?
You can use it to generate binary on any machine, so yes you can generate binary, but the auto pin muxing stuff won't work.
I am a bit confused. only got one line... am I supposed to have more than this?
TI AM335x BeagleBone
I think it should be
TI AM335x BeagleBone Blue
I'll try to get my hands on this device, but you can use this to generate and load binary on Blue, you'll need to manually set pin config that's it.
What country are you in? I can ask my university's department to send you one. They might, since they are actively using this device in labs. You can email this email if that is an option.
I'm in India
That may be tricky. I'll see if I can get help with beagle.org first before trying to send parts out. Do you prefer that I close this issue for now?
Actually, this is a gsoc project with beagleboard, I was sent BBBW, BBAI
and Pocketbeagle for testing by them.
You can keep the issue open, not a problem.
From where will you ship? USA?
Shipping into india will be costly, and take a lot of time. You could rather order to my address from Indian stores like these: https://www.robocraze.com/beaglebone-blue?sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi0xsD69e_rAhXczjgGHQJPDvYQgOUECKUG
@dmalawey I have mailed you, any updates
As an individual I do not have funding for this. In the last few years I worked at a university where they are using the Blue in lab. I will pass this on to them. There's a chance that this will be beneficial enough for the lab that they would send you a blue to get this help. Please standby.
Sure, I will :)
@dmalawey Wanted to give a update, jason shipped a blue to me, will receive it in about 3 weeks.
