Could somebody help me here please?

I'm running dual boot (Chrome + OpenELEC) auto-booting into OpenELEC.
I don't have a keyboard but I can access the AsusBOX through ssh while running OpenELEC.

I want to remove dual boot since I never use ChromeOS, and the extra space might come handy for Kodi. Can I just run the script from OpenELEC and install the standalone version (OpenELEC\Kodi) or do I need to boot into ChromeOS and install it from there? (the issue here is since I don't have keyboard, I can't hit CTRL+D to change boot)

Thanks for your help.

When I saw it didn't work I switched to Ctrl + Alt + F7, I saw "Could not resolved archive.ubuntu.com".

Any suggestions?

I took the original SSD an put it in an adapter so I can use it to install OpenELEC on a different pc, but it says it's read only... I did have it running in my Chromebox dual booting but then I upgraded the ssd for a full Ubuntu install. Maybe the adapter is defective?
Any ideas?

I installed a standalone OpenELEC a week ago. Such a pleasure to pass the old sluggish android box on to another family member.

Your script went fine but I ran into the overscan problem during install and I could not see about the first 4 or 5 characters at the left margin during install.

I've got an old 50" Panasonic Plasma Viera and I messed around with settings to try and eliminate the overscan but never found success. The biggest trouble came during selection process for USB back-up or write of OpenELEC. I could not see the number the script was expecting. I ended up moving the USB to a different location and hit a 1 and that got things going. I did not have a different spare monitor to use.

I guess there is not a good way to have your script tab about 5 characters to the right... I may build a few more Chomeboxes for less technically inclined buddies, so I'm not looking forward to the overscan problem again.

Cheers.

I followed the steps on page 1 to dual boot ChromeOS and OpenElec on as Asus Chromebox. Everything has worked great for a few days, but now soon as I boot into OpenElec, after 5 seconds the screen goes black..then the openelec logo comes back on...and this is a constant loop, every 5 seconds. It appears to be re-loading the openelec every 5 seconds. The only change that was made, was Updates were set to Automatic vs Manual.

Any thoughts on how I can fix this? Thanks!

Be careful -- I bricked mine trying to do this

what do you mean by 'option'?

(2015-01-01, 00:52)Jpopgt Wrote: The usual options are not there to be selected

DTS, AC3....etc.... passthrough with DTS HD, True HD

And my desktop is 1080 60hz....looking for the 24hz option so films are smoother through Kodi

Cheers.
