Where to put edid.dat now? (Xbian 1.0B1 major change)
Hi
Up to Xibian 1.0A5, the filesystem was the default raspberry one, and so
config.txt
and
edid.dat (where needed)
where in the /boot/ folder
now the folder has been emptied (where are the kernel and boot images?) and putting the edid.dat and config.txt there seems not to be working..
can someone please shed some light on the matter?
Thanks!

you need to do mount /boot first

Wow, thanks for the FAST reply!
That worked indeed.. but why it isn't mounted by default anymore? to speedup the boot process?

Well, while this is appreciable, it makes dozens of guides on the net about customizing the Raspberry obsolete.

If someone logins via SSH, I hope he's aware to be careful with its /boot Smile

Thanks for the great work!
