Full Version: Installing on ASUS EB1012

I'm trying to install XBMC on a USB stick and then boot from that on my ASUS EB1012. Because the EB1012 doesn't have a CD-ROM I used my laptop to create the bootable USB and selected the option to install to a hard drive. I got the bootable USB going but after the boot I was left at a command prompt. I expected XBMC to start automatically. I type in xbmc and got these errors;
Error: unable to open display
FEH.py: cannot connect to X server

During the install when I was prompted to create a user I did not enter xbmc nor did I use xbmc for the password. Is that a problem?

Since then I tried to recreate the bootable USB using my laptop but instead of getting the setup screens I get a grub prompt. I'm at a loss on how to proceed. Any suggestions?
FYI for others who may find themselves in the same situation;
I manually entered the commands found in \boot\grub\menu.lst under the line containing "title Install XBMCLive to disk". This resulted in the install starting as expected.
