Hi guys,

I have setup a new RPI with all sources,
addons, settings, accounts/passwords, ...
etc. on Xbian 1.0 Beta 2.

It is running alright, but I remember it was
running better/faster with RC 1 or RC 2.

How do I update to RC 1 or RC 2 without
ending up on that problem-hefty RC 3? I tried

apt-get clear; apt-get update; apt-get upgrade

but that did not work at all. I am still sitting
on 1.0 Beta 2 (see log).

Alright, thanks, that worked, but I landed on 1.0 RC 3 now. I
just wanted to get to RC 2, as written above, because everyone
in the forum told not to use RC 3. Wink

Or has RC 3 been fixed in the meantime and it is usable
now?

I remember two weeks ago an update from RC 2 to RC 3 rendered
my PI useless.
RC3 is working fine now.
Thanks. Smile

Unfortunately, what I feared, has now occurred. My
Pi does not boot up anymore - just showing the XBian
logo, saying network started and then this screen.

I still can access it with Putty and so I deactivated
Samba's autostart (I read somewhere, Samba is the
culprit in RC 3), but that did not change anything.
Sad

Anyone knows what to do?

Btw, Samba autostart on or off produces the same
screen, it does not matter.
What does this say (if xbian-config starts, just exit it):
Code:
su - xbian -c "/usr/local/lib/xbmc/xbmc.bin"

XBian-config started and I clicked it away. The result
you can see in the screenshot. Smile
As far as i can read it is either the SuperRepo addon that failing or the youtube one (or yet another unknown one).

Try the following:
Code:
mv /home/xbian/.xbmc/addons/repository.superrepo.org.frodo.repositories /opt/
And restart xbmc.

To restore:
Code:
mv /opt/repository.superrepo.org.frodo.repositories /home/xbian/.xbmc/addons/

Do the same for the YouTube plugin (no idea what it's called).

If that doesn't work try:
Code:
mv /home/xbian/.xbmc /home/xbian/.xbmc-bak
Start xbmc.

To restore:
Code:
mv /home/xbian/.xbmc-bak /home/xbian/.xbmc

Alright, that is what I did:

1. That Superrepo command and sudo reboot after that.
2. Outcome: Looked like before on the Samba screenshot.
3. I could not find the Youtub repository name, so I just deleted the folder plugin.video.youtube from the addons directory on XBian per Windows Explorer and sudo reboot after that.
4. Outcome: Looked like before, same Samba screenshot.
5. So, it was not Superrepo and not Youtube, I guess. I restored them both then.
6. That "if does not work, try that" command and start xbmc.
7. I had that XBian standard look in blue and with all settings and everything lost.
8. So, I rebooted and made that restore command of the "if does not work, try that" command and sudo reboot.
9. Looked like before, same Samba screenshot.

Well, I am sure it is not the Youtube or Superrepo stuff, but still I do not know, what is blocking everything. Sad

Is not there a command to see what is stopping the loading of everything?
