I would say just add a link on that page that says something to the extent of "Compiling for Fedora/RedHat Enterprise Linux/CentOS" and then create a new page with instructions for the distributions.

Not sure how to give access. msg pike on the forums or irc and he can take care of you. Just ask for ninja status.

You're most welcome, thanks for making a great product. I'll do my best to keep that up to date, I've got a few friends using XBMC w/ Fedora now on a regular basis so I'll be forced to keep it working

A custom OS that pulls from debian unstable /ubuntu repositories, but only has the bare essentials to run XBMC, maybe include vim and ssh for management, but no desktop or other rubbish.

stripped down debian unstable, with the option to format the disk the (in my eyes) correct way (/, /home, /usr, /var, /tmp and swap partitions). debian runs a lot better on my hardware. well, let me say it like this, it works on my hardware out of the box, and that is something that ubuntu cannot accomplish. i've had so many problems with ubuntu that i gave that up. now i wan't this ubuntu mid (the xbmc live version) installed on my system, since the live cd works like a charm, but as you can see in the topic i created, the installation doesn't work like it should.

ALL !
Why don't you publish a Source-Code Version so everybody can compile it on nearly every Distribution ?
I want to try XBMC, but i'm using ArchLinux and so I can't try it....

We talked it over and decided take the necessary steps for the betterment of the project. Thanks for being that catalyst. You can visit our new sourceforge page to get the source code: http://sourceforge.net/projects/xbmc/.
