OE 5.0 RPi test build

[mvallevand]

Here is a test build for the RPi with some mods to sub's code that seems to work on the RPi. It includes the latest Helix changes that aren't accepted yet.

http://d-h.st/ql2u Be careful for adware on the site you will want system.7z

The md5 checksum if you need it, is 62915486a82d85ebf3bac9d11d87444e

To install update or create an a normal OE 5.0 SD card by replacing SYSTEM with the file in this archive. You can save the original on your system if you'd like.

I'd be interested in any feedback. I tried timeshift and normal, both seem ok now.

Good luck.

Thanks for this Martin - I got one for Christmas and have been trying to get my head round it. Far too many unfamiliar words or names given to operating systems and applications. I haven't been reading the X*.* threads so it all comes as a shock!.

I'll be firing it up later today.

That site is terrible to download from ... I will pass for now.

Seemed quite quick for me. Just take care not to select the download button using their "download app". Use 'download now'

Sorry about the site but you get what you pay for. It is much faster than similar sites and easier than signing into dropbox when you are used to it a practise safe computing. Ad blocking doesn't hurt.

It's promising to hear it's working, a good sign that it will continue to work is looking into the Kodi.log where I log a debug "EAGAIN" message. The RPi networking is awful, worst I have seen since then MVP, but at least I was able to use that MVP experience with the same error.

Much appreciated Thank You for following this up. Once again thanks to You and Sub... and other developers.

Are there any other RPi users out there that are planning on testint? It would be nice to know if this works for more users and sub can likely get it built now in 14.1 if things are good. Otherwise it will be long wait for 15 to be stable and lots of posts that the NextPVR doesn't work with the RPi.
