Hi,
I'd like to install onto my 8GB SSD drive (which is not removable).
When I try it says that no removable drive was found.
Is there any way around this? Thanks.
Regards,
Michal
EDIT: Umm.... Never mind... Even though I specifically looked for an install option in the GRUB menu and have booted it up about 20 times in the last 2 hours, I managed to miss the option. Perhaps I need a coat-hanger and a DIY lobotomy.

Now I'm stuck on trying to get my original XBOX Remote with dongle working under the installation to hard disk.
I've done this before on many full Ubuntu + XBMC installations but I've either forgotten or something has changed.
Is/usr/share/xbmc/system/keymaps/ supposed to contain a keymap for the Xbox Remote? If so it doesn't seem to, and I can't find it anywhere.
Any help greatly appreciated.
P.S. Even though I've set up lirc as in the past when I run irw and press buttons on the rmote I get nothing. This concerns me greatly as I'm certain I should be getting something.
EDIT: Wow.. All I have to do is post after hours of frustration and I figure out the problem within minutes. The onboard Soundgraph was lirc0 and I switched the config to point to lirc1.. Problem solved. Later I will figure out how to use lirc0 directly (I've also done this beofre so now that I'm more than half way there I should be fine).

External HDDs on USB enclosures, or similar, are not seen as removable hard drives thus not considered as valid targets for BDW.

OK - thanks for the clarification. Perhaps a statement declaring which data media types will work could be useful on the BDW splash screen, as at the moment it just says 'disk'?

Luigi,
Will the usb drive created you also allow to install?

I tried this also and it worked fine but I'm getting the long boot time as others are. I'll take a look at the ubuntu log. I haven't tried messing with it yet as I haven't rebooted much.

Tried it in Dharma Beta 3, and it didn't work for me. It just stuck at "Copying System Files"
I left it for 15 minutes, and nothing changed.
Am I doing something wrong?
