Linux ChromeBox Kodi E-Z Setup Script (LibreELEC/Linux+Kodi) [2017/02/21]

I tried to follow the instructions from this thread to install a dualboot set-up to my HP Chromebox (ChromeOS + OpenELEC). Unfortunately I am running into some trouble and I hope somebody can hep me.. Angel
I have to say that I am new to LINUX and to this forum so forgive me if anything is unclear in my explanation.

Basically, I followed all the instructions to prepare the chromebox, I login with user Chronos and did the installation which seemed successful. Then as recommended I changed the boot time to 1 sec and the default boot to OpenELEC. After re-booting for the first time I got to this screen and the booting is stuck there:

yes, that's what happens when you change the boot options before completing the 2nd part of the dual boot setup, and why the instructions are explicit about not doing so Smile

Quote:Then I re-booted (with the reset button pushed) and re-installed chrome (recovery mode) from an USB device.
(Not sure if that was a good idea or not..)
When rebooting I still get the the exact same screen.

Anybody has some advice on how to fix this?
How can I access the boot menu?

Thank you very much in advance,

Dominic

before the black SeaBIOS boot screen appears, press [CTRL-D] to boot ChromeOS (this may mean doing it before your screen initializes). Download/run the script, and set the boot options back to the default. Then, re-run both stages of the dual boot setup as per the instructions in the first post. Reboot and boot OpenELEC manually ([CTRL-L] on dev boot screen) to ensure everything works properly. Reboot and boot into ChromeOS, and re-run the script to set the boot options the way you want them.
