[PROBLEM] Kodi wont start on HummingBoard

[cobordism]

I am having trouble starting kodi on my cubox-i.

I am also getting the same error as OP (hence I reply in this thread).

When I start the device, it boots, I see the kodi splash screen and then it crashes and drops me into a terminal.

any suggestions on what I should try?

Edit: Trying with xbian-jessie-latest-imx6 instead of xbian-latest-imx6, exact same problem.
