Thanks. I would have installed Debian on my machine by now, but the 16GB
Toshiba uSD I bought a couple of weeks ago has failed already. After the
first couple of days, I had to reformat it repeatedly, both on the BBB and
on each of two Windows (XP & 7) machines. Win32DiskImager didn't work at
all on the Windows 7 machine: it repeatedly hung as soon as I got to the
writing phase in a way that required rebooting the Windows machine. I
loaded and ran a disk imaging program from an outfit named RoadKil.net --
that's a sign of real desperation!. It got into the writing phase, but its
progress stopped at 0.06%. At least it was possible to end that program
without rebooting the machine.
I'll try to load Debian again as soon as I get another uSD, and not a
Toshiba this time.

P.S. Meanwhile, I'm using nano. Not emacs, but not vi, either.
