This page is a work in progress - Bare with me, it'll improve over the next few days!
Hardware used:
Shuttle XS35GTv2 - This guide should suit for any atom / ION2 based PC, though the HDMI audio may differ. VGA monitor (for initial setup - It'll be easier due to some GUI issues like font size) HDMI capable TV / receiver (receiver is optional, necessary for passthrough options and nothing else) Keyboard and Mouse (USB or bluetooth, bluetooth recommended if you dont have an xbmc remote device (android, etc) or an IR receiver and compatible remote)
Software used:
Fedora 15 DVD x64 - Download from [1]
Installing hardware:
