Hi,

I've installed an addiational graphics card into my ion mobo.
XBMC booted only into terminal mode (expected that) and I was not able to fix it (did a nvidia driver reinstall and tried and tried).

So I decided to reinstall...

But now I've two issues:

1) Lili does not seem to know the compatibility settings for XBMCBuntu 12.2 - what to select ?
2) when trying with default settings it does start from pendrive (I for sure know because I disconnected my harddrive to check) - but as soon as I boot with the harddrive connected it seems to SWITCH to booting the old system which is not working...

Any Ideas ? Do I need to reformat the harddrive first ?
Check your BIOS to be sure USB boots ahead of the hard drive.
Thank you for your reply...
I did that already - pen drive is first and harddrive is even disabled...
Looking at the pen and hdd led I can see the usb drive flashing and then it seems to switch to the hdd.
At least that is what it seems like... If that is impossible I will try another pen drive...
Ok... Tried another pen drive and installation working as expected now...
