So my PIVOS M3 was (is) originally set up with Linux XBMC by my father who gave it to me before I moved away. As a result, my main means of support have been online. I have since been able to update to Kodi 14.0 and am satisfied with its running performance so far.
However, I really know nothing about Linux, and any time I try to run commands via a terminal from my Windows PC, especially to install anything I get errors such as "Code 127, cannot find sudo apt-get" or something of the sort. I copy commands directly from guides, too. I don't even know what that means or why it won't work. When trying to set up an emulator through advanced launcher or RCB, I don't even know what file to point to so that the emulator launches (again, I know nothing of Linux file extensions).
My question is, in your opinion, should I change my OS to something I'm more familiar with, such as Windows? Do you think my performance will suffer? Also, is it a pain to switch over? Just trying to get an idea of whether or not it's worth it. Thanks for your input.
