Maybe he can write up a guide and I can add it to the wiki

Thanks Matt. Reading this thread, I noticed you have Steam installed on your setup. In the event I can't figure out Igor's solution, how did you install Steam on your rig. Simple is good. I like simple. Blush

I'm not a guru in Linux, so I tried simple solution. So here what I did 9maybe not the most efficient way).

1. Flash cooreboot using Matt's method (to enable standalone linux installation).
2. Install Fedora 20. It can be any distro. I used KDE spin.
3. Create xbmc user without password.
4. Make xbmc user auto-logon (I did it through KDE configuration panel)
5. Install Openbox:
Code:
yum install openbox
6.Download and install RPMFusion repos from http://rpmfusion.org/Configuration
7 Instal XBMC
Code:
yum install xbmc
8.Install Steam
Code:
yum install steam
9.Logon as xbmc user
10. Add XBMC application to autostart (I did it through KDE configuration panel).
11. Run XBMC and install Advanced Launcher (http://www.gwenael.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=3)
12. Add Steam widget to Advanced Launcher.
13. Log-off.
14. Select session - openbox.
15. Log-in again.
That's it.
