Libreelec not installing on Intel Nuc

**escalade** · October 16, 2017 at 11:56 AM

Put "libreelec log files" in your address bar and the internet will reveal it to you

When booting the LibreELEC stick, do you get a syslinux prompt then a logo before the screen goes black?

Just a friendly hint:

surely if I can’t install Openelec or LibreELEC I can’t enable the log files.

**Jocke.Sve** · October 16, 2017 at 6:33 PM

Same behavior with other TV/monitor?

BTW, what display adapter do You have?

ChelseaNick25 · October 16, 2017 at 8:10 PM

Try setting it up on a 1080p tv, or possibly set your oled to 1080p.

Download Generic AMD/Intel/Nvidia GPU HTPC from downloads – LibreELEC

Using the Libreelec SD creator, burn this image to a usb stick.

Put the stick in the NUC, I am assuming bios it set to EUFI?

Connect another tv, NOT 4K

With a keyboard & stick plugged in, turn on NUC, press the F? key to check the stick can be seen in the Bios.

then insert another usb stick, select install to the second usb

Then follow instructions on screen

You are probably thinking I want to install to the hard disk, well if the install works on the second usb, then you can try to install to the internal hard disk, although Libreelec will run quite well from usb.

I run my celeron nuc from a 32GB usb with no problems.

Create a DHCP reservation for the NUC in your router so you can predict what IP it receives. Now create a USB and install LE normally (to USB or HDD it doesn't matter). After install it will boot and you end up with a black screen, but this is normally an Xorg issue and not a total failure to boot the core OS. Now SSH into the box's IP and run "cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | paste" so we can see why there is no display. I have a hunch that this is an Xorg modeline issue.
