And it got to a prompt eventually. I was expecting a GUI. After rebooting it came up to a GUI that looked like a gnome desktop. I still wonder about SD card differences and boot script for a Pandaboard vs. Beagleboard.

This is actually pretty common behaviour for Angstrom, at least
the larger images (like systemd-gnome) - there's a lot of setup
operations that have to be done on the board and they only happen
the first boot.  Subsequent boots will not suffer from this.
