For development it is recommended to go to Debian on the SD card where there is plenty of space for development work. Debian provides many more packages and a much more familiar environment for users already versed in Debian. Once here you can use apt-get to install/remove packages, configure the network, and perform other common tasks. Out of the box the Debian distribution does not have a custom username/password set. You can use "root" as the username with no password to get access to the system. Keep in mind services such as ssh require a password set before they allow connection.
