Even using the console image Robert and I suggested, you'll gain back a lot more space on the eMMC.
Also note that Roberts instruction for building from scratch / source is done on a PC and not the BBB. But is more complex, and does pretty much require Linux on that machine. I only mention this in case you're thinking it has to be done on the BBB. There is also another method for making your image smaller( without building from source ), but is complex and requires mix / matching files / directories from multiple sources. I'm still investigating this myself, so could not get into too much detail. Except that /var/modules is not fully populated in *debian-7.5-bare-armhf-2014-07-07.tar.xz. *So if you need specific modules . . .This could prove to be a minor pain in the butt at minimum. Systemd also lives in this directory.
