opkg: command not found

[Immutant]

Hello, I just received my new element14 BeagleBone Black. I have little
experience with Linux, and some experience with microcontrollers, so I got
the BBB to tinker with.
Right now my goal is to open a chrome browser in Linux. Since I do not have
a physical HDMI connection to my monitor, I attempted to control the BBB
using a VNC. These are the steps I took.
1) Open new BBB from box.
2) Install drivers
3) Connect usb to BBB and computer
4) Connect ethernet cable to BBB
5) Look around the website: http://192.168.7.2/Support/bone101/
6) Google for resources to setup a VNC, e.g:

7) Set up a SSH connection to the BBB (not that I have no microSD card
installed at the moment, and everything I have done is as described (e.g.
no flashing of OS because isn't debian already preinstalled)

So for most of them, the first step was to install any updates, e.g
opkg update

However, I get a message: opkg: command not found as shown in the screen
shot.
This has stumped me and I do not know how to proceed further. Could any
kind soul please help? Thanks
2) Install any updates: opkg update


2) Install any updates: opkg updatin

Lol, resolved it myself. Use:
apt-get update
