script and firmware update 2016-02-02
------------------------------------------------------------------
- Update coreboot to v4.3
- Update SeaBIOS to latest upstream commit
- Update OpenELEC to v6.0.1 / 6.0.198-Intel_EGL
- Add "headless" booting option for dual boot / Legacy boot update
- misc fixes/improvements

OpenELEC 6.0.198-Intel_EGL is OpenELEC 6.0.1 plus fritsch's Intel/VAAPI/EGL backports as applied in his final OE6/Kodi 15.2 build (version 6.0.98). It's still the best / most stable option for most systems using an Intel GPU, IMO. A download link (and instructions) for manually updating (like everything else) can be found on the wiki page.

since i have ASUS Chromeboxes is this build the best most stable build OpenELEC-Generic.x86_64-6.0.98-fritsch.tar to run on them since it fixes the wifi dropping issues after a reboot or is there a better release?

Thanks

It has now been superseded by my 6.0.198-Intel_EGL release, linked on the wiki

Can i use the Intel EGL OpenElec build on my HP Stream Mini Pc, I'm currently running the official OpenElec generic build on it. Or is it just for the chrome boxes?

And thank you again!

they already are, the only reason I reposted them here is because the Kodi wiki site was down at the time.

As I'm heading towards creating a new OpenELEC dual-boot system from scratch, I probably should first set the startup options to default and perform a factory reset just to be sure. At the moment, I'm unable to boot to ChromeOS to launch the EZ script. No matter how early or how much I try to hit [CTRL+D], I just get the dreaded low memory error. I have been able to boot to ChromeOS with the keyboard I've tried so it cannot be the problem here. That means, I shouldn't perform a factory reset as per the wiki.

How the get around the problem without bricking the device?
