Thank you heaps Robert.
BBB-eMMC-flasher-debian-7.2-2013-11-15.img
/boot/uboot/tools/ubuntu/small-lxde-desktop.sh
worked perfectly! May be because I ran the command without SUDO proviledges
I had some fatal errors but still GUI loads fine.


However I am highly concerned as to why my previous attempts failed. I
spend more than a week trying to install the following and those GUIs didnt
work. Could you, if you know can, please tell me why they didnt work?
Since the EMMC wouldnt have enough storage all of them were run when Ubuntu
was booted from SD card. Not from EMMC.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the folllowing are what I tried to get the GUI working. However they didnt
work.

using  ubuntu-raring-13.04-armhf-3.8.13-bone20.img

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop

Gnome 3 installation: sudo apt-get install gnome-shell

KDE see Kubuntu installation: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop

XFCE installation: sudo apt-get install xfce4

LXDE installation: sudo apt-get install lxde

Openbox installation: sudo apt-get install openbox

DID NOT WORK and was FREEZING all the time after installations. How come
only the one you recommended worked? Im confused.
