Just so you know. Much of the Debian and Ubuntu documentation will work for both. Debian also has a ton of information / documentation out there. All you have to do is google.
I like Debian because I have been using it for years and it is very solid. Debian on the BBB has also been very solid in my experience. However, this is not a desktop x86 OS so do not expect every single thing to work perfectly, or even to be included in the package manager(s).
