Now I feel like I`m really a noob, yes I am, but I thought I could handle this..
I will try to reinstall my Chromebox with OE EGL, as mentioned in the upper post.
But I can`t seem to understand how to make this happen. If i push ESC at boot up, I get the GNU GRUB.
There I have some choices: Ubuntu, Advanced options for Ubuntu, Memory test and Memory test.
And "e" to edit commands befor booting and "c" for command line.
I have tried "c", and tried to enter the curl code for getting the script, no luck :-(
I am running KodiBuntu standalone as is now, but I want to change to clean OE, and update the firmware if necessary.
But I`m stuck.
I have read the whole first thread, but can`t seem to find what I`m doing wrong. Or maybe I`m just plain stu..d?
Hope to get a pointer in right deriction :-)
Kindly Petter
if you're not seeing the 'Press ESC for boot menu' text at boot, then your boot menu wasn't properly created / your USB stick isn't being recognized. Pressing ESC after that, as you have seen, gives you the grub boot menu (assuming grub is installed), which is not useful nor what we want.

please someone.. help..
even thought i soldered the pins with the rub i can know if it worked for me.. because i cant get into chromeos to tying install the custom firmware again
PLEASE SOMEONE?
hard to say since you clearly went off script and tried doing a whole bunch of things without having disabled the firmware write protect, though I don't know what you could have done to affect ChromeOS booting. This isn't the best place for ChromeOS-related issues - perhaps try one of the Google+ communities for ChromeOS/Chromebox?

no, a clean install of fritch's Intel-EGL OpenELEC build will not have those issues. Re-test with a clean install, stock skin, no addons installed, etc. And if you're still having issues, provide the information requested in the OP for troubleshooting else nobody will be able to help you
