[QUOTE="KernelPanic, post: 2054864, member: 43382"] Thanks. I have download both OSMC and OpenElec. Although I'll be using it mostly with LED TV, I would still like to have some basic OS features, including an web browser (and may be some other internet apps)? I checked Rasphian, it seems to include a lot of stuff which I suppose I'll have to remove after installation. Or do you guys think I should go for Minibian and then install a desktop environment and other required applications? I don't mind setting everything up manually. I suppose Ubuntu Mate is another option? OSMC looks really nice, is it something (kodi with that skin) that I can install in say Minibian too? Sorry another question, can I test these images in vmware before installing it on the card? EDIT: Searched a bit and I think multiple OS installation is another viable option. Since the media files are all going to be on a HDD connected to the router, I won't really need that much space on SD card. So, I guess I can partition the card and install both OSMC and Ubuntu mate on it. [/QUOTE]
