TI itself points to the fact that you need much patience when using 
USB100V2. I don't know what size your application has but with a .bin file 
above 100 kByte there is time to get a cup of coffee until .GEL file is 
executed and firmware is loaded.

Beside of that restarting the code on BBB does not work, so you reload the 
code quite often.

TinCan Tools I mentioned are the header (that is required for Black) and an 
adapter to connect with the TI debugger - so just some passive pieces of 
metal that work fine for me. Don't have any experience with their debuggers.

I'm using it for bare metal programming with Starterware only, no Linux 
involved. There the debugger works quite poor, also with CCS6.
