Linux ChromeBox Kodi E-Z Setup Script (LibreELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2017/02/21]

I've been trying to create a bootable usb for Kodibuntu. I've downloaded the 64bit. I've tried creating the usb via windows.

"This Linux is not in the compatibility list. Linux live usb creator will try to use same initial parameter as for Ubuntu 14.10..." I've tried with different 2.0 4GB usb flash drives and still nothing. I've done this before with Ubuntu and worked fine.

My chromebox is on standalone running openelec. Just that obstacle I'm having creating a bootable Kodibuntu usb.

Use UUI (universal usb installer) - http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-u...-as-1-2-3/

Be sure to update the kernel to 3.18.4 as per the wiki post-install instructions.

- changed lowest fan state from OFF to ULTRA LOW (~1900 rpm)
-- still inaudible, keeps system cooler overall, fixes Windows fan control issues (coreboot only)
- update VGA BIOS to latest Haswell/Broadwell version (1035); separate configs for ChromeBox/Book (coreboot and SeaBIOS)
- synchronized coreboot and SeaBIOS to latest upstream codebases

is this mean you can use the chrome box with windows without issue, except the audio?

yes - it fixes the fan not working in Windows without the use of an application like Speedfan; the fan now works properly just like under Linux. I still don't recommend it though, esp now that there are at least 3 boxes available which have similar hardware, but "standard" UEFI firmware, so no issues running Windows.
