OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 15.0) Part 2
(2015-04-24, 10:39)noggin Wrote: Yep - the thing to remember about milhouse build downloads is that you need an already working OpenElec set-up to update, they aren't images you can write to a disc to create an initial OE install. If you are starting from scratch, download a disc image from the Openelec.tv site and boot from that, then copy the milhouse stuff to the Update folder via SMB and reboot. When you reboot OE will see the update stuff, decompress it and install it and then reboot again into the new version.

There is a way to install a really clean Milhouse build from scratch:

1. Decompress an official OpenElec disc image to your sd-card

2. On the sd-card delete 'kernel.img'

3. Open your favourite Milhouse-build with WinRar or a similar archive tool that can handle .tar archives

3. Go to 'target' folder inside the .tar archive

4. Extract 'KERNEL' and 'SYSTEM' to the root folder of your sd-card and overwrite the original 'SYSTEM'

5. Rename 'KERNEL' to 'kernel.img'

6. Go to '3rdparty/bootloader' folder inside the .tar archive

7. Copy everything inside this folder (including the 'overlays'-folder) to the root of your sd-card by overwriting the original files

Done! A clean Milhouse-build from scratch. If it won't boot, you probably haven't renamed 'KERNEL' to 'kernel.img' Wink
