Hi Matt,

I've just bought the ASUS Chromebox and went straight to you blog to install OpenELEC, but I'm facing an issue here.
I've search this forum, several users had the same issue, but I'm not able to resolve using the suggestions given to them.

I've "Put in Developer Mode" and "Disable Firmware Write Protect" (steps 1.1 and 1.2).

My next steps:
- Used the console to download your script and used the option 1 to create the new partition (selected 9)
- After the reboot, selected again option 1 to download and install the OpenELEC.
- Selected option 3 (boot options) and option 1 (short boot / OpenELEC default)
- Reboot

Here starts the issue, I get the message:
SeaBIOS (version rel-1.7.5-10-g8e966c6-20120729-MattDevo)
Booteing from Hard Disk...

And hangs here.

I then tried again the option 1 (installed the OpenELEC again), but doesn't work.
I've also changed the boot order, but selecting CTRL + L sends me again to the same screen.

Any advise?

Thanks for your help

you forgot to do step 1.3. From the wiki: A factory reset is not needed on a Standalone setup, but must be performed prior to any dual-boot installation.

I haven't been able to figure out what causes the issue, but a factory reset prior to a dual-boot install fixes it
