Hello xbian,

thank you for this great release! This realy rocks!
However i have one issue: When i start my pi without a LAN cable plugged in (which is my main scenario) the start sequence hangs at "starting xmbc...". The progres bar keeps moving for over a minute then the screen switches to black and shows "xbian login:". After waiting for another 20sec "starting xbmc..." appears again and after a few seconds xbmc is started and works without any problems. If a LAN cable is plugged in the start sequence works without any problems. My system is a clean installation of xbian.beta2.2013-11-16rs.img with win32diskimager.
Can anybody confirm this issue? Or even has a solution/workaround?

The issue seems to be related to these posts

Additional info
I did some testing and can reproduce the issue (at least on my system) with these steps:
1. clean installation of xbian.beta2.2013-11-16rs.img with win32diskimager
2. insert SD card in pi an watch the setup to its job
3. xbmc is started
If you leave xbmc by powering off your pi it will start without any problems next time.
4. Power on your pi. Xbmc starts without any problems.
5. Exit xbmc by selecting "Power off System". Screen switches to black with "xbian login:". Power off your pi.
6. Power on your pi. Xbmc starts without any problems.
7. Now select "Power off System" again. But this time a progressbar appears and shows "shutting down..." and finally "system halted."
8. From this moment on the described issue appears
