RE: initial setup
I downloaded the .img from http://xbian.org/download/

Installed it on a Transcend 8 GB SD card with win 32 imager

Inserted the SD card in the rsp and it starts up.

Then it stop when the screen with xbian initial setup and the loadingbar dont move.

So what to do?

RE: initial setup
- what is the power rating of your PSU?
- do you have any device plugged into RPi's USB ports directly?

RE: initial setup
I have exactly the same problem here.

Power supply: 5V 1A
Raspi attachments: hdmi, network
4GB SD card
Pi Model B Revision 2.0 (512 MB)

I tried Alpha 5 both with the installer and win32 imager.
The screen shows that the initial setup is started, bar goes to 100% and then nothing anymore.
I notice that my DHPC server does not provide an IP. (tried again with wheezy, and got an IP, so no Hardware issue).

After this I tried the Alpha 4. (both with installer and imager), here, I even don't see anything (raspberry is not starting up).

Plug the sdcard into your pc, on the partition that appears open the file "config.txt" and change

core_freq=375 to core_freq=250

If that doesn't help also change the

arm_freq=840 to arm_freq=700

RE: initial setup
I would recommend using USBIT instead of Win32 imager next time. Not sure if it would make a difference but I had some corruption issues with old SD cards using win32imager. Never had an issue with USBIT: http://www.alexpage.de/usb-image-tool/

Class 4 cards dont have a real use in RPi as they are way to slow.
Also look on our Wiki for recommended HW/SD cards which are tested and confirmed as good with RPi/XBian
