This one's easier. Current BBB models are shipped with Debian on the flash but it's Wheezy [Debian 7.8] Debian Wiki http://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn/TI/BeagleBone and http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian should both help. http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/installer-armhf/current/images/hd-media/SD-card-images/ has concatenateable images. One part is firmware and board specific, one part is partition and filesystem zcat the tow portions together using zcat: there is a README file showing exactly what to do. Use dd to copy the image to an SD card. This gives a minimal command line environment that can be built on from there. A serial console cable is a very great help in all of this for debugging and seeing the progress of the boot.
