Quote:Updating the coreboot Firmware
----------------------------------------
As of version 3.0 of the script, you can simply re-download/re-run the script under any Linux distro with a full bash shell. The dual-boot related options will be disabled, but the Standalone Setup / coreboot firmware update option will be available.

If you are running a Linux distro which does not have a full bash shell, such as OpenELEC, you should use my new standalone firmware updater script from an SSH terminal. This script is only intended to update a ChromeBox already running my custom coreboot firmware, and will not work under ChromeOS/ChromiumOS.

Code:
curl -L -O http://goo.gl/HSZer4
sudo bash HSZer4

Note: the 'sudo' prefix is not required under OpenELEC, since you are always logged in as the root user. Additionally, this script must be run immediately after booting, otherwise it may fail to detect the current firmware version.

I have a standalone OE setup, I copied the 4 files to the upgrade directory and then rebooted the Chromebox, afterwards it detected the files in the upgrade folder, but I had a black screen, so I hard powered down the chromebox and when I powered it back on it started to flicking the Kodi symbol with the mouse cursor showing on the screen in a endless loop. So now I am stuck and don't know how to reset this, any help is appreciated.

What I did was just copy the TAR file into the upgrade directory (no need to unzip - as per WIKI) and reboot.

I'm having buffering issues when streaming a movie that isn't on my hard drive. After about an hour it will start buffering. I press "O" and the cache(10mb most of the time but did see 20mb once) is down to 0. I increased the cache by following some of vids on Youtube and still no luck. If I start a new movie it will play fine but after about an hour I start having issues again. My internet is 100mbs but the Chromebox sees between 60-80mbs through a powerline converter. I think I have only had the issue at night so maybe it's a server issue?

Need some assistance / guidance on audio. I just bought an Asus Chromebox, followed the steps outline on the Page 1, created a stand alone OE...and frankly everything works. everything that is but the audio.....its brittle and scarcthy. Just cant seem to figure it out. Any one else have similar issues...if so how did you guys fix it.

Thanks

Ok so I have everything setup through MySQL and I want to update to OE 5.0.

First off, when I go look at the releases, I see 2 files (http://openelec.tv/get-openelec):

[Stable] OpenELEC 5.0.0 (x86_64)
[Stable] OpenELEC 5.0.0 (x86_64) Diskimage

Which do I use?

And from reading above, I see that we have to drop this into the /storage/.update/ folder and reboot.

What exactly is going to happen when I reboot?
Will this go out and create a new database and copy all of my content (database entries)?
Is this going to wipe away all of my MySQL settings?

I know to make a backup but I want to make sure I know what's going on before I do it...

I also have 5 rpi's to do but I suppose that's for a different thread

Thanks in advance!
