+
+The Open Embedded Linux Enterainment Center – OpenELEC.tv
+
+OpenELEC runs XBMC, a complete media center solution (xbmc.org).
+The base system has been designed and built from the ground up to be as
+efficient as possible – consuming only a tiny footprint, cutting edge
+hardware support and a set-top box experience.
+
+Source code:
+- http://sourceforge.net/projects/openelec/
+
+Installation:
+- Please read INSTALL for instructions how to install.
+
+Known issues:
+- Testing snapshot
+
+Features:
+- System size ~ 90MB
+- Minimal hardware requirements
+- Simple configuration
+
+Software:
+- xbmc HTPC software – View/Manage all your media.
+- samba server – File transfer from any PC client
+- Transmission – bittorrent client
+- IR/Bluetooth Remote Control
+
+Notes:
+- Login details for SSH are user: “root” password: “openelec”
+  SSH allows command line access to your openelec.tv machine for configuration
+  and file transfer. Linux/mac clients can natively use SSH, windows users
+  might want to try PuTTY for their terminal access.
+- $HOME is mounted on /storage (the second ext4 partition on the drive). All
+  data that you transfer to the machine will go here, the rest of the system is
+  read-only with the exception of /var (which contains runtime configuration
+  data).
+- Manual update/downgrade procedure is as follows:
+  Extract the snapshot and navigate to the 'target' directory
+  Copy KERNEL and SYSTEM to the 'Update' network share (or /storage/.update) on
+  your openelec machine.
+  Your system will automatically upgrade during the next reboot.
+- Automatic mounting of filesystems is supported. Devices such as USB Flash
+  Sticks can be plugged into a running machine and will be mounted to /media,
+  showing up in xbmc’s GUI.
+- Comments and questions are more than welcome, help is even better and patches
+  are absolutely perfect!!
+
+Please visit http://www.openelec.tv or log onto our IRC chatroom #openelec on
+freenode.
+
+Happy XBMC'ing
+
+OpenELEC.tv Development Team
