== Prepare installation media ==
* A USB DVD/CD-ROM drive or a USB Flash drive of at least 1GB should be used as installation media.
* Download [http://www.linuxmint.com/edition.php?id=104 Linux Mint 13 "Maya" - MATE (64-bit)"] or [http://www.linuxmint.com/edition.php?id=106 Linux Mint 13 "Maya" - Cinnamon (64-bit)].
* For installation with a USB DVD/CD-ROM - flash the downloaded image directly onto a DVD/CD.
* For installation with a USB Flash drive, please use the "Startup Disk CreatorAccessories->ImageWriter" utility to create a LiveUSB or follow [http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/744 How to install Linux Mint via USB] tutorial.
== Base installation of Linux Mint 13 ==
* The XBMC-XvBA repository provides XBMC PVR builds with direct XvBA support.
* Add the XBMC XvBA repository and install the media player:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wsnipex/xbmc-xvba-eden
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xbmc
* XBMC will support HW video acceleration out of the box.
 
== RTL8723AE Wi-Fi driver ==
* fit-PC3 devices can be assembled with the RTL8723AE PCIe chip which is not supported by mainline kernel yet.
* If you do fresh install please use [http://www.fit-pc2.com/download/mint/fitpc3/maya/rtlwifi-dkms_0007.0809.2012.deb rtlwifi-dkms_0007.0809.2012.deb] driver.
