I can't tell (that doesn't mean it will not)
what problems with usb you have? btw, just remembered something, will post link in 5.
http://forum.xbian.org/thread-1515-post-19984.html#pid19984
so yes, there were changes to usb too
For a few users, their USB install stopped working last week. Reinstalling the complete beta 2 and trying to get back to running from USB has failed.
1. if I didn't miss something we are still and again speaking about the same regression in btrfs kernel code (inability to create COPY) - but it is not related to USB. simply the function does not work.
http://forum.xbian.org/thread-1770-post-20235.html#pid20235
2. have to see the posts to have idea (about "usb install stopped working"). still have ~50 new posts to go.

I was expecting something new. But if you still mean that one incident, about /boot partition I told you and yes, exactly that one is the regression in stable kernel.
New kernel is week or two in devel for testing and yes it is that one we are discussing now.
(if you will install the kernel, you have to grab all packages - there are dependencies set. or you can wait and you will get the packages when I move them today or tomorrow).

Okay, in that case I will wait for the new updates.
Wasn't 100% clear to me that you are working on it!
I was merging btrfs patches on 11-Jan. Few days after then uploaded to devel - when I was sure it's ok with me.
Nothing will come to be forgotten… don't be afraid.
Maybe I will ask Brantje if he can't create one sticky forum where the first and only post would be updated with package names and repo name if package changed. So one would see if there is going to happen some change.
(btw: if you don't see me on forum online - the most work is happening exactly at that point)
Thanks for the reply mk01. To answer your question it's the turbo option in overclocking, not the force option.
I'll try the turbo overclock once the changes are released on stable.

yes, that matches the profile (affected by this "fix").
Hi, I have a problem with "booting" from USB, i triend to make xbian copier but in my case it freezes in the middle, then i made new install of xbian, and succesfully copied to my usb device and after changes in comandline it rebooted from my usb. But after apt-update and upgrade it will not boot anymore (im using wifi dongle, powered from usb hub, disk is also on usb hub but it also have its own external power. Any suggestions?

Some general comment of the update verbosity. What i miss is some feedback on what's happening while updating and if it succeeded. All updates until Alpha 5 told the user what is was doing and if it worked. I think knowing this also makes it a lot easier to debug. A small example. Just copy everything at once in SSH can press enter:

Gratz on RC1!!!
USB install seems to be getting better (I love the progress bar!). Still won't boot from /dev/sda1 after going through the complete "Xbian copier" (option 6 from xbian-config).
Also, "Backup /home to file" generates a 20 bytes backup_home_2014-01-26-1332.img.gz in a couple of seconds. So something is obviously wrong there as well.
Hhmm. Xbmc GUI resolution is at 480p or something and I'm missing my loaded movies and series.
Also can't change it from xbian-config "Failed to change XBMC GUI resolution"

apt-get update will do. the version was added a bit later.

No new packages to install.
