I followed the instructions above after installing Xbian. This is what I did.

1. Installed Xbian image to SD Card
2. Loaded XBian on Pi
3. Exited from XBMC
4. Used WinSCP to SSH/SFTP connect to Xbian in sudo mode
5. Transferred the tarball to the /home/xbian folder
6. Ran the command above from putty command line
7. Restarted the Xbian


Halfway through loading it crapped out and complained about it not being a recognised distro and threw me back to the command line

Can anyone help please? Total Linux noob here so that probably has to something to do with it. Could it be that I was using Xbian 1.1 and not 2? Couldn't find 2.

Many thanks,
Richard.

are you sure you have installed the right files? Be aware that there are two different versions, one is Gotham and another is Frodo. If you installed XBian from our site, than you are running Frodo more likely unless you have nightly Gotham build

Yes it was, so that is probably a problem. Is there anyway to upgrade to Gotham from within XBMC/Xbian? When I tested RasbMC there was an option to use nightlies from with the RaspMC addon which I used to upgrade, not sure the same is possible from Xbian?

Thanks for your reply.
