There is a much easier way if you are running the Debian image from BB.org 
there is a script that is already on your bone. Steps are as follows: 

   - Boot master BBB with no SD card in
   - Insert SD card
   - Log in (e.g. with serial terminal, SSH etc.) and run sudo 
   /opt/scripts/tools/eMMC/beaglebone-black-make-microSD-flasher-from-eMMC.sh 
   (you may have to cd /opt/scripts and git pull before this.) LEDs will flash 
   in sequence whilst SD card is being written.
   - When the LEDs stop and the script terminates, remove the SD card.
   - Insert SD card into new BBB then power on.
   - eMMC will be flashed; LEDs on new BBB will flash in sequence until 
   complete.
