I agree. I actually used the raw SD image further down the page for checking it 
out, and it worked perfectly well (albeit it is truly minimal - not even the 
man pages are installed).

However, apparently Canonical decided to not support systemd yet in 14.04 (it 
seems to the consternation of their own users). This is in contrast to Debian, 
which is hybrid already in Wheezy. While there’s nothing wrong with SysV, I’m 
not a Linux sysadmin, don’t have the ambition to learn both, and am getting 
used to systemd from Wheezy.  There isn’t a 14.10 (let alone 15.04) image build 
yet.

The main reason I’m trying to get my hands on Ubuntu for BBB is that I have a 
Ninjablock - which at its heart is a BBB running Ubuntu 13.04 - that I’m trying 
to update to the latest version so I can have a more reproducible platform for 
testing out changes. But it seems to me that I may be better off porting it 
over to Debian, maybe Jessie.
