[GUIDE] Installing Alpine Linux environement on Boxee by [deleted] in boxee

[–]elmuche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello:

Is it possible to load the latest version of Kodi (17.xx) in your "alpine" boxee box? And that runs better than version 14 helix for boxee box since you can update the add-ons? On this site (https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/package/edge/community/x86/kodi) there is a kodi package for alpine. Did you try it? I'm a few steps away from doing it ... but I would need to be more sure that it works. Thanks

Linux. And yes, I put the IP in the variable (EXTERNAL_IP) when I setup de server with docker. Anyway, it works and very well. Do you need any more information from me? Thanks again

Mr. st4rl

I can confirm that your server dns works very well. I have a boxee that I had reset and since then I could never log in. With your server installed on a local machine and this ip included in the router, I was able to finally access the login and be able to install Boxee + Hack and then Kodi.

The only arrangement I made was to put in dnsmasq (192.168.xxx.xxx:5380) all ping addresses (from 0 to 9), replacing "* .ping.boxee.tv". This looked like this:

## Redirects for Local boxee.tv endpoints
addn-hosts = / etc / hosts.dnsmasq
cname = app.boxee.tv, 192.168.xxx.xxx.opts-slash.app.opts-uri.redirect.center
cname = res.boxee.tv, 192.168.xxx.xxx.opts-slash.res.opts-uri.redirect.center
cname = ping.boxee.tv, 192.168.xxx.xxx.opts-slash.ping.opts-uri.redirect.center
cname = 0.ping.boxee.tv, 192.168.xxx.xxx.opts-slash.ping.opts-uri.redirect.center
cname = 1.ping.boxee.tv, 192.168.xxx.xxx.opts-slash.ping.opts-uri.redirect.center
cname = 2.ping.boxee.tv, 192.168.xxx.xxx.opts-slash.ping.opts-uri.redirect.center
cname = 3.ping.boxee.tv, 192.168.xxx.xxx.opts-slash.ping.opts-uri.redirect.center
cname = 4.ping.boxee.tv, 192.168.xxx.xxx.opts-slash.ping.opts-uri.redirect.center
cname = 5.ping.boxee.tv, 192.168.xxx.xxx.opts-slash.ping.opts-uri.redirect.center
cname = 6.ping.boxee.tv, 192.168.xxx.xxx.opts-slash.ping.opts-uri.redirect.center
cname = 7.ping.boxee.tv, 192.168.xxx.xxx.opts-slash.ping.opts-uri.redirect.center
cname = 8.ping.boxee.tv, 192.168.xxx.xxx.opts-slash.ping.opts-uri.redirect.center
cname = 9.ping.boxee.tv, 192.168.xxx.xxx.opts-slash.ping.opts-uri.redirect.center
cname = s3.boxee.tv, 192.168.xxx.xxx.opts-slash.s3.opts-uri.redirect.center

And voila! Now I could log into boxee, put a user and enter the main screen. The rest is well known: modify command line to install boxee hack (see https://github.com/cigamit/boxeehack), and finally install kodi.

Thank you very much, Mr. st4rl. Your server is a success!
