Did you hold down the Boot button, near the USB connector ?

If not it will boot from eMMC which has Debian ;-)

ubuntu-14.04-console-armhf-2014-08-13.tar.xz sd card installs Debian, not Ubuntu

 

I did an SD card install of ubuntu 14-04 console following the script 
instructions on eLinix -  I ended up with a Debian console. 

 

 I do not have an ubuntu as a user or temppwd.  I do have a Debian console with 
user set to debian.  Looks great.  Not what I want or expected.  I can login as 
debian, temppwd.

 Excerpt from instructions --- 

 

Default user: ubuntu pass: temppwd

 

Get prebuilt image:

 

wget 
https://rcn-ee.net/deb/rootfs/trusty/ubuntu-14.04-console-armhf-2014-08-13.tar.xz

Verify Image with:

 

md5sum ubuntu-14.04-console-armhf-2014-08-13.tar.xz

I installed to sd card on a laptop -  after booting from sd card in BBB:
