Hello everybody, I just bought the UDOO, it's a great hardware. I wanted to do a HTPC with server function (nzbget, couchpotato, sickbeard, headphones) and with a HTPC capability (XBMC) I started to work on a debian distro without GUI for stability. It worked pretty well so i wanted to share to the community. Maybe together we could simplify some steps of the installation and fix some minors problems. So like i said i wanted server function + XBMC. Now i'm not able to do it on the same installation. So i did two installation, one installation of Debian and server fuction like i will describe here and this installation will boot on hard disk. The second installation is the binary from stephan on a bootable sd card and the hard disk will be a device. So we need 2 sd card (one 1GB and one 4 to 8 GB) to have the two function. To switch to one to another you just change the SD card and reboot UDOO. Here i describe how i get the server function on a bootable hard disk. I recommand you nzbget instead of sabnzbd for better performance One problem i still have to fix is that i can't have NZBget autolunch... if someone could help ?
