<snip>

After the install is completed, it asks me to remove the installer media and reboot. 

After the 1st reboot, it boots to the shell screen. When I type 'exit' and go to 'boot from file', the internal hard drive is not even listed. 

After a 2nd reboot, again to the shell, this time when I go to 'boot from file', the internal hard drive is there, but empty, no files.

My Chromeos storage manager showed only 1.1GB free, so that's why the Chromebook Recovery Utility (CRU) could not write the image to the USB flash drive.
Using the CRU on a W10 machine worked for me now for all USB flash drives.
...just had to wait much longer letting the CRU write several partitions to the USB flash drive.

Quote:The sun is shining today.
I reset the partitions: Chromeos showed 10GB (why not 16GB?) before I reinstalled the dual boot with LibreElec (LE).
I gave 6GB to LE, 4GB to Chromeos.

Thank you so much for your quick and precise comments. It helped me persist. 

Quote:the drive showing 1.1GB free shouldn't be a factor. The Chromebook recovery utility writes an image to the USB, complete with partition layout and data. It doesn't care what if anything is on the drive, what format, etc. All that matters is that the drive capacity is large enough to support he image being written.

I totally forgot to reset kodi to factory defaults and now my partition is too big to run the script up to 100%.  LibreElec fails to boot  now! Please can somebody help me to recover my partition and to rerun the script? Many thanks in advance!

I guess at this point, 2 options: 1) swap in another SSD, 2) revert to older Legacy Boot firmware and see if that works

Thanks for all your help thus far. 

(2019-02-06, 04:24)Matt Devo Wrote:  No, much easier:
* boot Linux USB
* run my Firmware Utility Script
* type uppercase U, then enter to "unlock" all functions
* option 3 to update the firmware
* choose L for legacy when prompted, N for headless and PXE. USB/SSD is your preference

then reboot and reinstall LE
