Linux ChromeBox Kodi E-Z Setup Script (LibreELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2017/02/21]
(2014-12-21, 20:04)paintmecyanide Wrote: Posting here because this script is among the top Google results for Chromebox Ubuntu.

The current version does not enable i386 by default. As a result, a number of packages will not install, particularly pipelight - needed to get Amazon Prime Video, among other things, working. This triggers errors that don't make it apparent that the problem is related to the architecture. This can be fixed, post install, by running the commands shown below.

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update

You might also want to consider not hard coding the Ubuntu version to "latest," and making Kodi installation optional. I am likely not the only person using this script as a starter for a general purpose Ubuntu box. I manually switched to lts, and deleted out Kodi while troubleshooting this problem, but they obviously ended up being unrelated.

script update v3.5 adds i386 package support, allows for selection of ubuntu version, makes XBMC/Kodi install optional (but defaults to Y)
