I've just started using XBMC (9.04.1) on a USB memory stick and it's splendid. However I'm pulling out my hair over a trivial problem:
It boots fine if I make a manual selection using a wireless keyboard (nvidia, item 0 in grub list).
However, if I allow grub to perform default selection the boot process gets to printing 'starting up' and hangs indefinitely.
Grub is set to select 0 for default selection. It doesn't seem to matter what timeout setting I go for, I can make this 60 seconds or 0 seconds and the same problem occurs.
Any thoughts as to what the difference is between making a manual selection and waiting for default? I need this box to boot without screen on, if possible.
