Well, i would buy an Ipod touch, then pay $25 for the prog.  I would hope that a program after that release, or around the same time, would be available for the blackberry storm2, when it comes out soon.  Thank god that uses wifi..

buying a ipod touch/ paying $25 would be cheaper than buying a 7'' touch screen orbiter that thom uses in his youtube videos, i guess, lol.

Unfortunately it was 8.10.. I will try it again here soon.  I love the video's thom has posted on youtube, great information about using the product after install. 

Mythbuntu installed perfectly as a stand alone install, I would imagine it is something to do with the download process from the server.  Corrupting some files required for error free installation.

Hello, thanks for the reply. 

My memory is shot, but ill try. 

I obviously booted off the dvd, and got to the installation options.  I had 5 options I think, the top options was to simply install kubuntu, and the bottom option was to install LinuxMCE.  I chose to install linuxMCE, because I heard that choosing that option was the correct way.  I think this is where I may be messing up, now that I think about it.  But I deleted all my downloads and installation files, and am redownloading now.

I went through the typicall installation questions (region, keyboard layout, etc) and let it do its thing. 

Unfortunately, this is where my memory goes .. I cant remember what happens next.  I just remember it booting into kubuntu, and having the final installation process wrapping up.  the progress bar was at about 98% when it pops up "fatal error", I hit my only option (OK), and it finished booting into Kubuntu . 

There was a shortcut on my desktop looked like a blank icon w/ a question mark in it, and linuxMCE at the bottom. 

I have temporarily given up on this, and am installing Mythbuntu as we speak, it seems to have installed just fine.

But, i would love to just go to mce and use myth from there, because I want to expand to security and other home automation features availiable.

Thanks,

Hi,

Sorry to be annoying, but I am trying to NOT use WHS + Sage, I have heard great things about LinuxMCE, but I cannot seem to install it.  I download it, waiting patiently, and burn it to dvd..

When given the option to install linuxMCE, I havent tried installing Kubuntu first. 

Anyway, I get almost done with the install, and I get a fatal error.  Kubuntu will still operate, but not MCE.

I have tried reburning the DVD, using verification, but the verification comes back with an error, and I have made 5 coasters.

My first download was w/ torrent, 2nd was just the .iso, both resulting in fatal errors.

Can anybody think of what I maybe doing?  WHS installs fine, but I am a complete noob as I have previously stated with Linux.  I have some experience, but only with Mint, because I prefer gnome over kde.

I have a 1.5TB drive, I have tried both installation options where it installs to the whole drive, or breaks the drive into 2 equal partitions..

Thanks for the help, I am really excited to use MCE, once i get it working!
