Also, on the next step , I was able to successfully create the openelec installer using the same usb drive. This same usb drive will not boot on the chromebox. I verified the copy was good using a laptop to test the usb drive.
So I was asking if he saw the same thing, or did the chromebox not detect the usb drive when backing up or copying the openelec image.
well, you just blew away your backup then, since creating the OE install media erases the USB stick:
Quote:Connect the USB/SD device (>512MB) to be used as OpenELEC installation media and press [Enter] to continue.
This will erase all contents of the USB/SD device, so be sure no other USB/SD devices are connected.
either way, I'm going to rework the OE install media creation since it seems to be problematic for some people. In the meantime, just follow the instructions (in the wiki) to redo the OE install media from another machine and try again
