About the SD card:<br>
The Raspberry is not the fastest processor but it's still a<br>
bunch faster than the SD card. So it's best to get the<br>
fastest SD card you can afford, at least a 16GB card.<br>
<br>
You may have an older version, but my raspberry mod 2<br>
had no trouble loading the raspberry version of debian that<br>
was available over a year ago. It is running an 8GB<br>
SanDisk Ultra 30MB/s 6 HC I. I loaded XBMC on it with<br>
no complaints. Of course you probably have a newer<br>
version of the Pi and the software.<br>
<br>
If I had to change anything, I would try to use the fastest<br>
SD Card I could afford, preferable the kind used in the<br>
new high-end cameras. Also, the one with the most<br>
storage I could afford, but the priority is speed over<br>
storage size.<br>
<br>
The other thing is that open source development can<br>
sometimes be frustrating (like I can't install batctl on<br>
my linux box right now) so just keep trying. But just<br>
once or twice a day because you know the developers<br>
probably won't upload updates to the mirrors more<br>
than once a day.<br>
<br>
And relax.<br>
<br>
FWIW, that's all I have for you.<br>
<br>
Good luck,<br>

hi guys, I got a problem. I ordered a Raspberry PI to run XBMC (aka<br>
Kodi) on so I can return the NUC to my father. The PI installs an IS<br>
called Raspian (a modified Debian). I am now having problems<br>
insralling XBMC (aka Kodi). Here is what happens:<br>
<br>
I ran apt-get upgrade- no problem<br>
~ $ sudo apt-get install xbmc<br>
Reading package lists... Done<br>

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have<br>
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable<br>
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created<br>
or been moved out of Incoming.<br>
The following information may help to resolve the situation:<br>
<br>
The following packages have unmet dependencies:<br>
xbmc : Depends: xbmc-bin (>= 2:11.0~git20120510.82388d5-1) but it is<br>
not installable<br>
Depends: xbmc-bin (< 2:11.0~git20120510.82388d5-1.<u></u>1~) but it<br>
is not installable<br>
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.<br>
<br>
~ $ sudo apt-get install xbmc-bin<br>
Reading package lists... Done<br>
Building dependency tree<br>
Reading state information... Done<br>
Package xbmc-bin is not available, but is referred to by another package.<br>
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or<br>
is only available from another source<br>
<br>
E: Package 'xbmc-bin' has no installation candidate<br>
<br>
So what do I need to do? Whenever I install xbmc from a n ubuntu based<br>
os it installs with no problem. Every other time I installed it onto a<br>
debian based os it installed with no problems.<br>
Another thing, I am also supposed to add a repository but this is the result:<br>
<br>
~ $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa<br>
sudo: add-apt-repository: command not found<br>
~ $ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa<br>
sudo: apt-add-repository: command not found<br>
<br>
I believe I added the repository onto a debian based os before but if<br>
it is not possible this is operator error.<br>
