Minor issue: ESATA drive is not automounting. It is available when I check via fdisk -l screenshot but it is not in /media or /mnt

Code:

apt-get update

That actually did it: running the commands manually instead of via Xbian-Config. Output shows no errors
apt-get update

apt-get upgrade

after it finished I did "reboot now" unfortunately the system hangs during boot, it shows the XBian logo on tv, progress bar is empty and it shows "loading..." for a couple of minutes now. SSH is not working. I unplugged the Cubox-i/plugged in again, that worked.

BUT REALLY weird: While im in XBMC, without doing anything, XBMC reboots every 60 seconds!

full dmesg here I found the following red line:

What does this mean? I am turning the Cubox off now because I don't want another dead Cubox.

Can you do a:

Error, you have held or broken packages, screenshot attached

Hmm. Let's wait for @mk01 to check in.

Is there a log file somewhere that shows the log of all apt-get commands? Perhaps something failed during the second command (from the FAQ) and I didn't notice it. I noticed the date and time is 1st of Jan, 1970. That's weird, normally Xbian shows current date/time.

I just redid everything from scratch:

1. used the 400MB 4dec image
2. exit XBMC
3. via SSH, fix current date/time with date command
4. via SSH now run the 2 commands from FAQ
5. still in same SSH session, run apt-get update and apt-get upgrade

I closely monitored the output for any warnings or errors, nothing. Everything processed normally, flawless.

The system even rebooted automatically (shown on tv when the update process was done "update finished, restart in 1 min".

RESULT: XBMC reboots every 30-60 seconds. Nothing I can do to stop that! Extremely annoying.
dmesg output: http://pastebin.com/BYbQhDNz

Everything went smooth and flawless, so it should be able to reproduce.

EDIT: I turned off CEC via XBian Config in XBMC, right after saving that modification, XBMC rebooted again. Now my TV is flashing black/snow all the time. Tried a reboot via SSH. No success. Please help!

Same problem here, i noticed that every time xbmd service restart the language is defaulted while i previously configured italian. I tried disabling CEC/forcing hdmi output/update every package available but nothing change

using XBian_2014.12.04_imx6.img.gz on cuboxi I2

Can you guys check if the permissions of the /home/xbian/.xbmc folder are correct?

drwxr-xr-x
screenshot attached.

edit: just checked my RPi as well: .xbmc has the exact same permissions.

And all files inside?

looks like some files for language are -rw-r--r--

edit: for some reason it now also takes time before I can SSH, after switching lan cable from RPi to Cubox-i, I can only SSH after XBMC has rebooted automatically once or twice (a minute or 2). But it could also be my crappy router.

Do you have any symlinks to network shares? Also, can you check if XBMC runs properly as XBian user?

I don't have any network shares. How do I run xbmc as Xbian user? Exit on the tv and then run it via ssh, logged in as xbian?

i experience the same problem when upgrading.
xbmc restarts every minute or so

also have the problem when upgrading from withing xbian-config i also get the depedency failure
