Hi XBMC community,

as this is my first message in the forum, I want to thank you for this fantastic piece of software. I'm using XBMC since 2005 on my XBOX and it is the most used software in my life. Fantastic!

I tried to boot XBOX Live Beta 1 on my HP Notebook and it is suddenly stopping. Here are the last 6 lines (if you need more, please tell me):

[65.607314] scsi 0:0:1:0: CD-ROM HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4083N HP13 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5

Is there a way to save the boot messages instead of typing?

Is there another way to give you more information?

Thanks in advance

You can "dmesg &> dmesg.txt" in a terminal and grab the dmesg.txt file with sftp or scp.

The whole output of dmesg will likely be of more use.

All of this stuff goes for your other thread too.

EDIT: Apparently you figured out that first bin while I was typing this

Hi althekiller,

thanks, that you want to help me, but currently I cannot type anything in a terminal, as the boot is not finishing and I don't have a terminal. ;-)

Or is there a way to interrupt the boot and open a shell? Or is there a second shell somewhere? I tried CTRL+ALT+F2, F3, F4... but there is just a black screen.

As soon as I get a shell, I will forward you the dmesg.

Do you have some another idea? Shall I download and try a Ubuntu 8.04 and see what is happing there?

Best regards

Christian

Hi althekiller and all,

I downloaded Ubuntu 8.04 and started the Live CD (it is booting, but needs a few minutes).

The bold line was the last line during the XBMC Live CD start. As there are different IDs (39.185900 and 65.660564 for "Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20") I don't know, if this can be compared, but maybe it will awake an idea.

The complete Ubuntu dmesg file can be found here: http://ceb-amdx2be-2350.bruemmer.homedns...hri/dmesg2
