just initramfs was installed without appropriate kernel package (installation interrupted).

you should be able to boot if you replace files in /boot with files inside this archive http://xbian.brantje.com/others/boot.xbian.zip .

Read Your post to late

I did update from clean install alpha5 and upgrade with no problem

@mk01:
no analog signal at all, blank screen...my rpi is connected via scart to an old crt tv set...

[mk01]

@PicatriX,

you can overwrite also firmware files in the /boot (http://xbian.brantje.com/others/boot.firmware.zip) and check, if /boot/config.txt has at least those lines:

Code:

initramfs initramfs.gz  0x00a00000
arm_freq=840
core_freq=275
gpu_mem_256=128
gpu_mem_512=128

black screen means kernel can't be loaded (when kernel starts loading, you see blinking cursor in upper left corner). but you used my kernel with no help. so last resort are damaged fw files. if boot shows no error and you rewrite the files you must get something on the screen.

@mk01:
thanks for your advices...finally got beta 2 to boot to xbmc, but:
- no clock / date sync;
- no ssh connection possible (connection refused on port 22);
- system at first is controllable using Yatse;
- after few minutes or if you try looking at weather or at xbian config under system setup my installation breaks out of xbmc to the classical shell/login screen with a lot of:
modem-manager[pid]: <info> Loaded plugin Gobi...Nokia...Samsung...Huawei...Linktop...
I will try another restore to beta 1.2 and upgrade to beta 2 in order to eventually repeat this condition, maybe it could be helpful to other users...

Edit: same result after retry... :-(

[googl1]

upgrading from alpha1, when doing
root@xbian:/home/xbian# apt-get install libc-bin libc-dev-bin libc6 libc6-dev xbian-package-cec xbian-package-config-shell xbian-package-config-xbmc xbian-package-lirc xbian-package-xbmc xbian-update

after typing "Yes, do as I say!", I get this:

i've got full backup of my sd card from before this upgrade.
any sugestions?

Please use pastebin for long logs.

i did this to solve this first problem, but now i get this:

Code:

something wrong happened, your xbian may not boot successfully after restart. disabling restart after update finish

after reboot, there's no sign of live on my pi again..

Actually, I am not sudo-ing since I have the root login enabled. But yes, of course I am updating the sources.

Have you tried:

[Freddie299]

Well, I only tried to switch to stable on the sources I had, which apparently didnt work.

Anyway, with "brantje" I got the next problem: Now I am having a lot unresolved dependencies. The hint with manually selecting all the kept-back packages doest work, as I am missing ir-keytable, lsof, update-notifier-common and more stuff which I nave came across ...

[Edit: Now seems to work after a reboot. Maybe a memory issue. Consider it solved for now. Thanks!]

Thanks a lot for both your work and patience!

gssd/idmapd/statd will be auto-started if nfs2/3 (statd) or nfs4 (idmapd, gssd) is automounted through /etc/fstab or it's start is requested through /etc/default/nfs-common

xbian-xbmc-bridge will start only if xbmc is successfully started. can you provide versions of installed packages with:

Code:

sudo dpkg-query -W 'xbian*'

As you can see, this is an upgrade problem.
Why you think it isn't?

There are errors during apt-get upgrade.

Regards.
