RE: Asus/HP/Acer/Dell ChromeBox EZ Setup (OpenELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2016/06/26] - Matt Devo - 2016-07-18 (2016-07-18, 09:29)Soli Wrote: Actually neither, but thanks for pointing that out. I once tried chromixium, so I know what is is but obviously had a brain meltdown What I meant was Cloudready. Despite the name, it's more or less ChromeOS for non ChromeOS devices. Brilliant. Cloudready is derived from ChromiumOS, just like ChromeOS is. They are similar but not interchangeable. And as Cloudready requires UEFI firmware to boot, it won't work with the Legacy boot implemented on ChromeOS devices currently. That is changing soon however RE: Asus/HP/Acer/Dell ChromeBox EZ Setup (OpenELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2016/06/26] - Soli - 2016-07-18 Well I know that both are ChromiumOS based, but it's a lot less hassle since there's a "company" behind it etc, works with updates too, and I think works with Netflix too. It works with both legacy and efi, that's the point of it: works with about everything from about the first core duo cpus.

Either way it's certainly an option, though not one that's supported here RE: Asus/HP/Acer/Dell ChromeBox EZ Setup (OpenELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2016/06/26] - Soli - 2016-07-18 Yes, but my take on it was to use autoboot usb option, install cloudready to a usb stick and insert the usb stick into chromebox whenever you want to boot to Chromeos/Cloudready. RE: ChromeBox Kodi E-Z Setup Script (LibreELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2017/07/19] - Matt Devo - 2016-07-20 Massive script update and migration of all hosted files to my new website (MrChromebox.tech -- if I broke anything please let me know RE: ChromeBox Kodi E-Z Setup Script (LibreELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2017/07/19] - bbsc - 2016-07-21 (2014-05-07, 19:48)Matt Devo Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------------------Thank you for your great work, Matt. Has anything changed in HDMI audio and cooler behavior under Windows with the latest commits? Does "always ON after power failure" feature still need a special firmware?

Power on after power failure restores last AC power state, which still means it will not power back on automatically when suspended without a firmware-level change RE: ChromeBox Kodi E-Z Setup Script (LibreELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2017/07/19] - bbsc - 2016-07-21 Ok, thanks for the reply. So no need for update as for now. The box works just fine with your previous firmware and always behaves as expected. RE: ChromeBox Kodi E-Z Setup Script (LibreELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2016/07/19] - Lobbster - 2016-07-21 I have an Asus Chromebox with OpenELEC installed (standalone). Do I have to prepare anything before I flash over to LibreELEC ? I checked the Wiki but it wasn't clear if I can update to LibreELEC from my existing setup or reflash from USB? TIA RE: ChromeBox Kodi E-Z Setup Script (LibreELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2016/07/19] - Matt Devo - 2016-07-21 (2016-07-21, 16:07)Lobbster Wrote: I have an Asus Chromebox with OpenELEC installed (standalone). Do I have to prepare anything before I flash over to LibreELEC ?"flashing" isn't the correct term here, you're simply installing an application/OS update. Upgrading from OpenELEC to LibreELEC is the same as installing an update for either - download the update file, copy into 'update' folder, reboot. You can always do a clean install from USB should you wish. RE: ChromeBox Kodi E-Z Setup Script (LibreELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2016/07/19] - Living Legend - 2016-07-21 I used this script a year ago when setting up a dual boot OpenELEC/Chrome OS setup. I went to switch over and update to LibreELEC 8.0 beta. To do this, do I need to run the script as if the Chromebox was out of box? EDIT: It appears this is a similar question to the previous post, except this is a dual boot setup RE: ChromeBox Kodi E-Z Setup Script (LibreELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2016/07/19] - Matt Devo - 2016-07-21 (2016-07-21, 18:43)Living Legend Wrote: I used this script a year ago when setting up a dual boot OpenELEC/Chrome OS setup. the same manual update (copy file and reboot) applies here too. there is one upgrade issue that applies universally to both types of setups is the size of the system (1st) partition. Much older OE installations only required 256MB for the system partition, but newer OE/LE versions require ~500MB. If you initially set your system up when the smaller partition size was used, you'll need to backup your userdata and do a fresh install so that the system partition is recreated with the correct size. In the case that you try to upgrade and your system partition isn't large enough, the upgrade process with simply inform you of that and not attempt the upgrade RE: ChromeBox Kodi E-Z Setup Script (LibreELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2016/07/19] - Living Legend - 2016-07-21 (2016-07-21, 19:19)Matt Devo Wrote:(2016-07-21, 18:43)Living Legend Wrote: I used this script a year ago when setting up a dual boot OpenELEC/Chrome OS setup. The 8.0 version download being added to the update folder did not work. It does say that this is the update to be used when updating from LibreELEC 7.0 so I supposed I need to get this version first? EDIT: Did not work either. Maybe I'll just do a fresh install EDIT 2: Did not realize there was an "update from openelec download" RE: ChromeBox Kodi E-Z Setup Script (LibreELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2016/07/19] - Matt Devo - 2016-07-22 (2016-07-21, 19:29)Living Legend Wrote: The 8.0 version download being added to the update folder did not work. It does say that this is the update to be used when updating from LibreELEC 7.0 so I supposed I need to get this version first? OpenELEC has always used separate update files (.tar) and install images (.img.gz) and are labeled as such on the OE site, Chromebox wiki, etc. LibreELEC supports updating from either (with the plan to eliminate the separate upgrade file), but if you're upgrading from OpenELEC, then you still need to use the OpenELEC update format file. RE: ChromeBox Kodi E-Z Setup Script (LibreELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2016/07/19] - tvdude - 2016-07-22 ChromeBox Kodi E-Z Setup Script how come it installs Kryton? We want Jarvis 16.1. I dont think anybody likes the ugly Krypton interface. Cam I make it install Karvis 16.1? |
