I have no idea what you mean by "sum of A". There is no "A" in the problem. Do you mean that you are looking for a "particular solution" of the form Ae2t? If so you should NOT be getting A= 0- you should not be getting anything at all for A! Setting y=Ae2t,y=2Ae2t and y=4Ae2t so that y4y+4=4ae2t8Ae2t+4Ae2t=0 no matter what A is
The "double root" that Bruce refers to is the double root of the characteristic equation: the associated homogeneous differential equation, y4y+4y=0, has characteristic equation r24y+4=(r2)2=0 which has the double root r= 2. The general solution to the associated homogeneous equation is y(t)=C1e2t+C2te2t. You need to look for a specific solution of the form y(t)=At2e2t
