Can't configure network - Igor Dovečer - 8th Feb, 2015 04:29 AM
Latest xbian downloaded today 2015-02-07
DHCP -> 192.168.1.108, mask 255.255.255.255, no GW, just ns 192.168.1.1.
Internet doesn't work, can't ping xbian, can't ssh.
Xbian config also doesn't help, after configuring IP address manually I get:
"An unexpected error occured!"
Can't save network configuration at all. WTF?
What to do. OpenElec works, raspian and Raspbmc, but xbian doesn't.
Can't ssh, can't configure IP, DHCP return 255.255.255.255 as netmask?
Thanks for suggestion.

what hardware is this on please?
RE: Can't configure network - Igor Dovečer - 8th Feb, 2015 08:10 AM
rPi B+
And yes,

Pi model 1 B and i have the same issue on the xbian config on Kodi... no labels on the left part menu but the options are all working...
Also did you tried manual edit of "/etc/iptables.ipv4.nat " and see if is the file is empty? And /etc/sysctl.conf and see if the line "net.ipv4.ip_forward=0" is there (and is a zero on the end)?
I had a similiar problem and had to edit this some time ago.

How to check those files?
Network doesn't work to access via SSH.
Do you mean directly via SD card reader?

Well i had my Pi hooked to my tv and i just plugged in a USB keyboard... exited XBMC/Kodi to the CLI prompt and did everything in there why Nano editor (you can use VI but is a pain in the rear IMO).
But yes if you have a linux machine (even a Virtual one) you can just plug the SDcard on it and edit the files there...

Blah, Xbian use btrfs file system, can't edit on my linux os.
Try to login via TV set in CLI mode, whats is user/pass? xbian/raspberry doesnt work.
Tnx.

Well i have Kali (Debian Linux distro) running on a VM and yes it can edit BTRFS partitions... you have to install the the tools but is fully supported.
In fact i've copied several times files in this way.

You shouldn't be able to mount the xbian filesystem as it is using a third party lz4 compression patch set.

Well last time i did this was when kodi version was introduced (i even commented that the update make lose my settings about 2 weeks ago? can't remember.) and on a Kali machine (fully updated) i was able to copy and edit the .xbmc folder and .kodi folder with no effort.
I moved the files from one folder to another, then edited some .xml and Xbian as been running since then.
Any changes on the FS on the last 2-3 weeks ?
RE: Can't configure network - f1vefour - 13th Feb, 2015 12:40 AM
No changes but lz4 is not in mainline btrfs and it should not mount, only thing I can think of is the kali kernel must be patched.

Well Kali announces itself as a digital/IT forensics OS ...
Is there a way to auto adjust mount parameters for custom FS on Linux? Or is that even possible?
