I had the same problem. Thank you Robert !! :)

For reference I have used Beagle Bone Black rev. B 
with BBB-eMMC-flasher-debian-7.9-console-armhf-2015-11-03-2gb.img.xz image. 
I recommend this image as it does not contain all the stock-crap (like 
apache server, GUI and many more).
I was installing webmin 1.78.

Thanks again, bye.
