Advanced users only: Beta 1 Hotfix

[IriDium]

@ilgrank This thread is called "Advanced users only: Beta 1 Hotfix" for "Beta 1" problems use http://forum.xbian.org/thread-1031.html

Bug 1 hotfix. So far.

Installed to SD card from latest xbian installer.
Updated as per instructions.
Installed package nmon for my testing.

Within XBMC update shows 2 libcurl packages can be updated. Should they be updated for this fix?

In xbian-config shell.
Changing autostart of xbian-config & change overclocking. Msg is without spaces.
Update mirrors. Shows error. Command not found
Packages. Returns error. Then awk syntax error.

XBMC:

Inserting a USB stick. Shows up in “df –h” and System Info. But cannot be seen with Videos -> Files nor via “Add Source” or File Manager. Rebooting with USB inserted did not solve the issue but restarting xbmc did.
Rebooting with a standard overclock didn't make a difference.

Plugging in a powered USB drive shows up in xbmc "Removable media mounted".
Rebooted with drives still attached. Did not show up.

Will continue to test and see what else I can find but the USB issue needs to be looked at.

--------------------------------- Update 30-06-2013 ------------------------
I applied fix https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/issues/397 but the USB not showing up was still there.
Installed the 2 libcurl packages. All went OK. Restarted xbmc and they were back again.

I think xbmc is starting before the ntp server has done it's bit. This is why the time and date are wrong when xbmc first starts. Also I believe this is causing a proglem with xbmc-backup because the time is "before" it's last backup and so runs after each boot.

--------------------------------- Update 01-07-2013 --------------------------
If you get a USB to mount and be visible, right click on that drive and select "safely remove device". It does not work. In Alpha5 you would get a message saying it is safe to remove, and the drive would be unmounted. In this, the drive remains mounted. If you pull the USB drive out of the hub you get "Successfully removed the device" whereas before it was Unsafe device removal.

Plugging it back in, the drive gets mounted by no message from within xbmc.

I've also noticed that after an xbmc restart (Stop then start) /boot seems to be permantly mounted.

It looks like the kernel could be the issue with the USB drives as they rely on frandon and that doesn't work with this kernel
