Well i tested this image https://www.miniand.com/forums/forums/development/topics/debian-wheezy-lxde-armhf-build  to cubie and it works well.Also installed the appropriate bootloader from the list but there is a file missing from sd card, unlike the berryboot one i used before.
Can i somehow create a uEnv.txt (EDID support) file inside the SD card, just like this one included with berryboot images, so i can change display output type to 1680x1050p60 ? This was my setting when i was using berryboot and it worked very well... thanks

There is some info about uEnv.txt here which should apply to recent u-boot versions and recent kernels:
https://github.com/linux-sunxi/u-boot-sunxi/wiki

Plus if you find the thread: Changing screen resolution on Linaro:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!category-topic/cubieboard/r_rr3IUrN3k

There is some info posted in that thread:

===

if you only want to change the resolution, and are running a recent
kernel, it is also possible to specify the resolution as extra kernel
parameter in uEnv.txt/boot.scr instead of in script.bin

E.g. for 1024x768 DVI mode add to the bootargs line:

disp.screen0_output_mode=1024x768p60 hdmi.audio=0

Choose highest mode automatically using EDID, and fall back to HDMI 720p
mode if EDID is not available:

disp.screen0_output_mode=EDID:1280x720p60 hdmi.audio=EDID:0
