I'm trying to install Ubuntu minimal 13.10 but i'm having an issue when the install reaches the DHCP config. The installer is unable to configure the NIC. Manually inputting the network settings also does not work. Problem seems to be the e1000e driver that's loaded. I've seen reports of full desktop ISO working. Is anyone else having this problem and is there a fix/workaround? If not i might try and remaster the mini.iso to include the driver from the the full desktop ISO. Still haven't had any luck with this. Anyone able to get the mini/server iso installed?

Yes I have installed Ubuntu 13.10 server without any problems on a i3, though. Only tricky part was that I had to boot from the usb stick as "UEFI".

I've experience several issues and tried so many different combinations of ISOs. 32/64 bit, BIOS/UEFI. I'm almost at the point of returning the NUC.

(1) Downloaded .iso file (13.10) from http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server/thank-you?distro=server&bits=64&release=latest (2) Created bootable USB stick with UNetbootin and the .iso file from (1) (3) Updated bios to FW24. (I haven't tried with the latest bios) (4) Plug in the USB stick, power on the NUC and hit F2 for boot menu. (5) Now you should see TWO USB stick entries in the boot menu. Choose the one which says "UEFI" (6) Follow installation instructions. NOTE: If I skipped step (5) I was still able to finish the ubuntu installation, but it was not possible to boot afterwards. Hope you succeed! I am very happy with the setup.

Going to try now. Are you using wifi or ethernet? Ethernet appears to be broken with mini/server ISOs. As a workaround I'm using wifi module from my laptop. RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - Guy H - 2014-04-05 Sorry, moved to correct thread RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - Jorgensen - 2014-04-05 (2014-04-05, 18:11)squareatom Wrote:(2014-04-05, 18:07)Jorgensen Wrote: (1) Downloaded .iso file (13.10) from http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server/thank-you?distro=server&bits=64&release=latest I was using ethernet . RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - sickpuppy - 2014-04-05 So I installed my D54250WYK, updated BIOS, installed Win7, updated Win7, got XBMC up and running and tuned it to fit my use. I did all this while the NUC was connected directly to the TV's HDMI-port(with a miniDP to HDMI-cable). This evening, my girfriends birthday and I was planning on watching a movie on the NUC with the wife to be, so I connected the NUC to the Receiver, the same port as my previous HTPC was connected to, and when I turned the system ON it was all black.. No signal the screen said.. WTF was my first thought, so I disconnected the NUC from the receiver and connected it directly to the TV again, but still nothing.. The power-button remains blue after turning it on, but the NUC never sends a tiny bit to the TV, it sais "No signal". So this evening I've seen a movie with the lady on my old HTPC while I've had horns growing on my forehead.. WHY IS IT ALL BLACK!!!?? Could it be that the NUC just forgot how to send signals out to the miniDP-port? I dont have a miniHDMI to HDMI-cable, so I cant check that out, so I will try to get my hands on one of those on monday.. But still it is saturday night here, I WANT THE NUC TO WORK, NOW!! :/ (sorry for the capitals..) Anyone experienced the same thing? Any ideas about what has gone wrong and how to get it right? BTW: When I shut down the NUC before disconnecting it from the TV and connecting it to the receiver there was a windows update-shutdown, but I dont think that would have any effekt on how/where the NUC sends its signals..? And remember, it doesnt even send the BIOS-text or nothing, it sais only NO SIGNAL on the screen.. So please guys, help the norwegian dumbass out here..

So the mini.iso will not work with UEFI and the NIC hangs when booted in BIOS. x64 Server ISO and UEFI is the way to go. Also my USB3 flash drive didn't want to work. Installer kept saying it couldn't mount CD. Anyway going to continue with the minimal install. Thanks for the help. This NUC is very picky so hopefully everything else goes smoothly.

Now I have even tried with a miniHDMI - HDMI cable, still no picture.. Noone out there who has tips? I just cant figure this one out.. Edit: I have restored the bios, during this I obviously got signals from the nuc to the screen. But when I replug the microSSD the screen turns black again. Now I'm making a bootable USB to reinstall the win7 from and see if that works. Do you think there would be any difference if I restored the BIOS with an older version? RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - Crssi - 2014-04-06 Try to connect directly to TV... do you get the picture? RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - sickpuppy - 2014-04-06 I did that, everything I tried after getting the black screen from the receiver was tried while directly connected to the TV. Update: After reinstalling the BIOS 3 times, I now got only one of the RAM installed(dont know if that got anything to do with my problems, but I decided to put in one piece at a time while trying out this), I finally got to install the Win7, and now I'm connected to the receiver and still have picture! But now I'm running win update and got every bodyparts that can be crossed, crossed to prevent this from going back south.. Wish me luck with this, I got a bad feeling about it and is afraid that it will f**k things up again..

Wow this is one of the clearest explanation ever! Thanks a lot I understand that although my AVR doesn't mention anything, it truly receives high quality audio when XBMC decodes FLAC audio files. To elaborate on the NUC audio chip, if you go to the Intel website, the i3 Haswell and the DN2828 Bay trail don't have the same statement under the audio capabilities. On one of the many forums talking about the NUC as HTPC, someone stated the i3 had a better handling of HD audio streams. Maybe in my case this wouldn't have made any difference (having an AVR handling audio after the NUC), but this was one of my decision maker. RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - ecotechhome - 2014-04-06 I have just assembled a D54250WYK with 4gb Kingston ram and a 60 gb msata hd. I decided to go for the i5 in case I later wanted to run Windows but for now just XBMCbuntu. I have installed XBMCbuntu 12.2 Intel-Nvidia. Everything seams to work OK until I try to play a movie and then the video stutters and there is no sound. The only way to get the sound back is to reboot and restart my amp. I also have an issue with the lack of remote, I have tried a Cyberlink MCE compatible remote but get no response to any button pushes.

Hi was just woundering what version of openelec ill have to download to try it on my laptop before i look into building my own system.. i have a laptop windows 7 64 bit? Thanks for any help |
