Actually it is kind of a big deal. You came here looking for help and didn't really get it.

And guess what? I have the exact same problem. My guess is that there is something wrong with the site at the moment. But honestly if the reactions are going to be like this in the support forums I may just wait for LibreELEC to get their distro working.

I haven't had great luck with community support for any Kodi distribution, Kodi, OSMC, OpenElec, LibreElec, and Xbian included. There just seems to be an arrogant, "you're dumb for saying/wanting that" attitude across the board. When I hit a tough Kodi problem I'll sometimes post a question to the appropriate board, then get busy debugging for myself. Sometimes I get lucky and receive a helpful response though obviously, not this time.

Not saying I know enough to be very helpful, but what problem are you having? My issue was that I expected the image installed during the "Getting Started" process to be a bootable instance of Xbian, but it turned out to be an RPi Noobs installer that needed internet access that I hadn't provided.
