[TriEmbed] Linux newbie advice

[Carl Nobile]

Glen,

I have a BBB. The only difference between the two is that most people are
more familiar with Ubuntu, so it is just more intuitive to them, me
included. I haven't bothered changing the OS on the board myself, I just
work with it the way it is. You will also find that Angstrom is more
strongly supported and will be better supported at least as of now. If you
are new to the Linux world, as you seem to intimate, I don't think it will
really make a difference one way or another. MOF maybe a little more
difficult if you try to put Ubuntu on the BBB.

Carl
