+---- Thread: XBMC-Live Install script. For Minimal Unbuntu Install (/showthread.php?tid=69753)
- pletopia - 2010-08-17
just curious .. has anyone tried to use the script with the ppa's ?? all i really want to do is convert my camelot box to svn however i'm scared of fuxoring the box like happened with my other box couple weeks ago

@ pletopia
what ppa's? the script uses the official xbmc ppa's for now, however because of the major disruption to official ppas, I started copying the contents of them to my own ppa to be used in future versions of script.
read about it here http://forum.xbmc.org/showpost.php?p=586142&postcount=997
this ppa can be added manually then run the current version 1.0970 of script.
as for being afraid of hosing your setup, well why not just backup your install with acronis true image or something?

ppa's are back ?
yesterday i try the script and after installation no xbmc autostart

@X3lectric
short setup step by step..
1. install mini iso (Minimal Karmic 32/64bit)
2. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-iquik/xbmc-svn
3. sudo wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/xci/files/Release/xci.sh/download
4. sudo chmod +x xci.sh; sudo ./xci.sh
done ?
- X3lectric - 2010-08-17
actually
its
1. install mini iso (Minimal Karmic 32/64bit)
2. sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
3. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-iquik/xbmc-svn
4. sudo wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4325533/XCI/Beta/xci.sh
5. sudo chmod +x xci.sh; sudo ./xci.sh
notice the script download link
note This this way of installing adding the svn ppa before running script should only be temporary until there's a stable xbmc on ppa otherwise you always end up with svn xbmc.
it should work...
NOTE:THIS METHOD IS NOT NEEDED ANYMORE since XBMC stable PPA exists. Using the above may result in a not quite 100% install where something may not work as prescribed.

xbmc@xbmc:~$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-iquik/xbmc-svn
sudo: add-apt-repository: command not found
works after
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties

The above should work with any version of linux from karmic up (IIRC), did you def install the karmic minimal?
If so, then you will have to do it the old way (edit the sources and add key etc) - details can be found on the here by clicking the 'details about installing link'
- dirtylion - 2010-08-17
yes its a blank karmic minimal 32bit
- X3lectric - 2010-08-17
yes apt-get install python-software-properties is required for add-apt-repository no big deal since if you dont have it it will tell you to install it.
I updated script version to 1.0972 which includes the svn ppa however to get a xbmc install you have to still run 9.11 install first then install xbmc svn ppa via script. This is because theres no stable 9.11 ppa yet.
@tdw197
while the ppa has lucid packages the script is still not lucid ready...
anywho updated TEMPORARY mini how-to
- dirtylion - 2010-08-17
the script works now great ! thx
i only got one problem when i press shutdown in xbmc.. the screen quickly reload and nothing happen.
i use zotac zbox hd-id11 with MCE remote
- X3lectric - 2010-08-17
depends on what you done exactly... tbh idk.
- dirtylion - 2010-08-17
