RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - Roi Danton - 2018-01-09 Hm, #0108 is not booting. Code: NEVER TOUCH boot= in extlinux.conf / cmdline.txt! Well, I did not touch anything. ;-) The boot then does not work, I see a lot of FAILED messages and at some point it just stops without loading the graphical interface. What can I do to revert to a older Milford build? #0106 was working good for me. Unfortunally I did not save the settings bevor upgrading today. RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - wheemer - 2018-01-09 Looks like your update had issues because I'm booting and running 0108 RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - Milhouse - 2018-01-09 (2018-01-09, 19:08)Roi Danton Wrote: Hm, #0108 is not booting. Presumably this is due to Meltdown - what CPU do you have? There are some known boot issues with certain hardware that will be fixed in 4.14.13, possibly (and hopefully) your hardware falls into this category: Greg Kroah-Hartman Wrote:4.14.13 will be out in a few more days, with some additional fixes in it that are needed for some systems that have boot-time problems with 4.14.12 If you don't have ssh access then in order to downgrade you will need to:
If you have ssh access then login, download the tar file, extract SYSTEM and KERNEL, make the /flash partition read-write withCode: mount -o remount,rw /flash /flash . Finally, reboot.I would suggest not trying again until 4.14.13 is available (probably before the end of the week). RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - wheemer - 2018-01-09 Does any retro gaming work on this build, I've been pulling hair trying to get something to work but have had little luck, Just a black screen or retroarch quits immediately RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - Milhouse - 2018-01-09 (2018-01-09, 19:44)wheemer Wrote: Does any retro gaming work on this build, I've been pulling hair trying to get something to work but have had little luck, Just a black screen or retroarch quits immediately No, the libretro addon needs updating. I posted about this a few days ago. RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - Roi Danton - 2018-01-09 Thank you for your answer. It is an Intel Celeron N3050. And yes, one of the goals installing this build was to see if Meltdown is taking any or too much performance from the system. I do/did not have SSH on the not fully booted system, no. So I just performed what you suggested. (Did not know until then that there is a live option for the LE stick. ;-) ) Works again, on 0106, downloading 0107 now and won't upgrade until there is kernel 4.14.13 in the build.

But I had installed Gamestarter and tried with their method and had no success.

Great. And don't forget to enable ssh on your working system - ssh is vital when working with unstable test builds! If you're concerned about ssh security you now have two options:
Option #1 would be my recommendation. When using option #2 it's usually best to use two ssh sessions - change the password in one, test the new password in a second ssh session.

And yes, one of the goals installing this build was to see if Meltdown is taking any or too much performance from the system. Actually, another solution for Meltdown boot issues would have been to add nopti to the end of the kernel command line[1]. This option will forcibly disable KPTI, but should only be necessary if experiencing boot issues (or if you don't want to take any potential performance hit from Meltdown, and accept the consequences etc.).1. Edit /flash/syslinux.cfg if booting with legacy BIOS, or /flash/EFI/BOOT/syslinux.cfg if using UEFI. The kernel command line begins with APPEND .
RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - Roi Danton - 2018-01-09 SSH is running and I changed the password. For automatic stuff (playing around with openHAB and LibreELEC) I also use keys. Unfortunally I was not able to login to SSH when the system did fail to boot with #0108 earlier, in fact it was not even pinging. No, I won't disable the the Meltdown patch with the kernel option. At least not now. I want to see if it makes any difference with my system and if yes, if the performance is still good enough for using the system. But I think the consequences are not that harsh on a internal box with Kodi running on it. We will see. So thank you for these information, too. I might use these later, if the performance decrease is too bad.

RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - wheemer - 2018-01-10 Nice it just worked right away first successful retro game I could ever get working with audio. Awesome work everyone.
