I've updated Xbian from Beta1 and after reboot it stoped on "FS RESIZE", how to fix it... ??

Hi guys!
I have a problem with the new xbian beta2. I have the old raspberry pi with 256MB ram.
I did a fresh install, everything was ok but when i try to play a video file (mkv, avi does not matter), xbmc stop working.
The "working" icon stays on screen, sometime the video plays but most of the time i have only sound.
Does not respond to commands from mouse, remote or keyboard, i have to restart xbmc via ssh.
I have no ideea what can be wrong, can u help me ?

Upgraded from beta 1. Upgrade hanged after reboot in resize fs phase, but (after removing quiet and splash from cmdline.txt ) on the next reboot Xbian seems to be up and running once again.

Thanks guys!

Can you try:

Code:

dpkg --clear-avail
apt-get update

It worked, thank you

I really dont know what im doing wrong but i cant get the beta 2 running for more than 3 minutes.

The first thing i did was a clean install of beta 1 with a successful update an upgrade to beta 2. This way xbian was really usable and fast. The only thing that was not working was the xbian config plugin so i had to setup my wifi with the ssh config tool.

Because of the broken config plugin i made a clean install and used the latest beta 2 image.

I have reinstalled the beta 2 image now for more than 6 times with the following reults:

1.) boot until "FS RESIZE" -> freeze
2.) boot successful -> the "first configuration" window comes up -> click on "Manage Networks" -> freeze
3.) boot successful -> skip "first configuration" window -> go through settings -> Xbian -> freeze
4.) boot successful -> skip "first configuration" window -> go through settings -> Xbian -> network -> wirless -> ssid -> ... it finds my network -> click on network name -> enter password -> loop through the window where i can select the network name. It wont accept the password the only thing i can do is exit the window but then it went back to eth0
5.) perform step 3) or 4) exit the xbian config plugin and try to open the config menu again -> "plugin already opened" (cant remember the exact error message)
6.) Try to shut down or reboot the pi with the xmbc power icon -> CEC disconnects but the image still stays on the screen and the pi wont reboot or shutdown
7.) If i try to do a hard reset (disconnect power) or sometimes after a fresh and clean copy to the sd card the following massage appers "Mounting root partition /dev/mmcblk0p2 failed" and "can´t access tty; job control turned off"

XBian team,

I just want to thank you for the awesome work that you've done on XBian 1.0 Beta 2 ;-)
It is super fast and super stable.

Regards,
Starous

thanks m8 nice to see a worming comments like yours

Is there something that i can test or verify for you ?
Would be great if i could help a little bit.

Or do you think its more a hardware based problem like unstable pi firmware or sd card problems ?

Just wanted to say a quick thank you very much for the gorgeous new Beta 2 release. Very stable and I noticed huge performance improvements for my setup compared to Beta 1. You are my heroes

Hi,

I get the following error when I try to execute xbian-config:

/usr/local/sbin/xbian-config: l?nea 200: /run/lock/xbian-config.gui: No existe el fichero o el directorio

I have a clean installation of beta2. Xbian-config runs fine in xbmc and ssh until the first reboot I think. Then I can't open it

Hi,

I took the plunge and did a fresh install of Beta 2 using Win32DiskImager to flash the image, and all seems good. Although please note that my existing Xbian windows installer could not connect and the new one fails with a 'qt plugin failure'.

My only question is how do I get to set up the boot loader for multiple images as I like to dual boot with Raspbian.

Cheers

Baz

I had a working and stable XBian 1.0 Alpha 5 (I think...) setup and I thought I would try the new Beta 2.

I installed it from the image to SD card using dd. I have tried 3 SD cards and 2 RasPies with uhh... quite disasterous results.

Most of the time I get stuck on fs resize. Then when I boot I usually get a recovery console (or what was that, anyway I am shown the motd and root is mounted at some place etc.) I don't have keyboard so I haven't been able to do anything at this point.

Once, with the third SD card I tried, I had set the nosdcardresize option and whoah! Success! XBian booted and XBMC started. I could control it with my remote and at first everything seemed fine. But then I made SSH connection to the RasPi and found that the root file system was mounted read-only. For example running xbian-config outputted lots of the error message about the read-only file system. I thought that maybe reboot will fix this (I am a Linux guy, so I wonder why I decided to use the best method for fixing Windows problems...). Big mistake. Now the system goes to kernel panic at 2 seconds after the boot.

That was the final straw for me this evening after four hours of swapping SD cards, RasPies, trying kernel options etc...

Am I doing something obviously wrong? I have never had this much trouble with any RasPi distribution.

Guys, were can I change the language of my shell? I have czech right now, but I want English.
See attachment of the shell in czech.
Thanks

I got the same results so there seems to be something seriously wrong with the latest update package.

Also, ssh login is again slow as hell...

Anybody help me with this issue:


Is the second time that I installed a fresh beta2 release and after second or third reboot xbian-config not works.

Why not exists /run/lock/xbian-config.gui that is reference in xbian-config script??
