It was an estimation taken from the scope's screen. I meanwhile attached a multimeter to the GPIO and it states 5.15V, so this should be definitely fine!

Yes, should be. But if there are any short spikes, I don't believe that you can see them with your old Hameg analogue scope

Well, maybe, maybe not. But at least I have a scope to attach and not only a multimeter that won't tell you anything about stability. And it also is 100MHz bandwidth, not just 20MHz which was standard at the time when I bought it. So I have something that serves as a base for an educated judgement about the quality of the PS. At least there a no obviously visible spikes, brownouts, etc.

Please check /etc/fstab. If /boot ist not mounted correctly, Kodi will not come up

Well, a bit late to test that, I meanwhile reformatted the USB stick, no chance to check anymore. I wanted to test a definitely clean install, thus downloaded the latest image, copied it to the stick and did a fresh install with that.

An interesting detail came up immediately: Already during the setup, bevor installing a PVR client or any addons, with the freshly installed system never having shown a single sec of video the Raspi came up with the high temperature warning. *All* that has been done with the machine before was to walk through the install wizard, entering the licenses for the video codes and then start to change some of the Kodi settings like language, keyboard layout, etc. So there's definitely something wrong here, the CPU should be idling most of the times but obviously doesn't. And the problem is there even after a new, fresh re-install, so it's reproducible at least on this specific machine. I'm seriously considering to teporarily test another Kodi distro to check if this problem arises there as well or if it's somehow related to something in xbian.
