Stable images are still built on 16.1 so you should be good

Actually not! The latest "Xbian-latest-rpi3" is Kodi 17. No idea when it changed, or if any of the earlier releases offer Kodi 16.
I personally don't think Xbian (Krypton) is ready to be released as stable.

Ooops, you guys are right. Forgot to disable staging repo when image is built for Rpi2/3

Will fix this ASAP, sorry for that Sad

And @Kerat, I agree with you, Krypton is IMO far far away from stable state Dodgy

Thank you for looking into this. I don't mind doing testing in less trafficked areas, but this build will be used in my master bedroom and I need it to have a high WAF. My wife is very comfortable with Kodi 16's interface.

Set to solved

For those that have installed the "wrong" image can the system be "downgraded" by just editing /etc/apt/sources.d/xbian.list and comment out the staging line and doing an upgrade in xbian-config?

Or is it best to start again from scratch?

No, not needed. You can downgrade xbian-package-xbmc by running in ssh session:

Terminal

root@kmxbilr ~ # sudo apt-cache policy xbian-package-xbmc
xbian-package-xbmc:

root@kmxbilr ~ # sudo apt-get install xbian-package-xbmc=16.1-1483301050

First command: Gives you a list of available packages
Second command: Install version you want to have

That's all you have to do Smile

My apology for my earlier post as I should have checked before I replied.
Nice to see it has been looked into and fixed. Thanks to our top man Smile

Please open a new thread for your problem. You have the rights for doing this now. BTW, I do understand exactly what your problem is Huh

I think he's saying he can't write to an external usb HDD.

I believe he has a permissions issue that is preventing this.

I know I am not good with this sort of thing Sad

I agree with you, but I did not want to stress my crystal ball too much Tongue

Really? Usually I'm working under root, so I do not have any permission problems LOL Big Grin
