I've neglected a piece of information. I'm trying to install the full 
desktops. 

Now, as I said before, I've successfully managed to flash other distros, so 
I don't believe I've made any errors in the actual installation process, 
and I've followed tutorials, where needed

I'm kind of stuck right now, as I can't install/flash anything, as my bbb 
is still not allowing me to boot off the sd for whatever reason. my only 
guess as to why that is, is because theres a script or something running 
from my first attempt at this, and my bbb hasn't finished some piece of it? 

I dunno, thats why I'm here
