Development Guide?

[mk01]

i just installed the packages to jessie successfully. after --second-stage finishes, exit the chroot and bind /proc /sys /dev /dev/pts /boot to the jessie dir ( /mnt/jessie in case of this guide ).

Code:

mount -o bind /dev /mnt/jessie/dev
the same for /dev/pts, /sys, /proc, /run, /boot

then chroot into it calling busybox sh applet (to have vi, less and others available).

Code:

chroot /mnt/jessie /bin/busybox sh

edit sources.list and add "deb http://xbian.brantje.com devel main", "deb http://xbian.brantje.com staging main" and "deb http://xbian.brantje.com stable main". run apt-get update and install xbian-package-kernel. this will install also initramfs tools, btrfs-tools and splash.

you have also to create xbian user and deliver the base /home/xbian files (I created deb package called xbian-package-xbianhome). this will do this for you - adduser xbian, unpack base files.

then you can reboot (change cmdline.txt as described earlier). after reboot jessie will boot. proceed to apt-get install xbian-update. reboot, xbmc will start and you have clean and fresh raspbian with XBian enhancements on it (XBian Beta2 actually).

btw:

you will probably need to install perl-modules, locales (apt-get install perl-modules, locales). later we can add this as dependency to xbian-update package.
