so I messed up !!
Used Matt's script a few years back to install openelec in dual boot mode on my Asus chrombox. Recently changed to Libreelec. Only having one problem - that being HDMI handshake ( I think)
whereas on occasion when turning on the system Chromebox- Sony AV Receiver - TV , the tv is blank. Have to power off/on the Chromebox - the unit reboots and all is ok till next time.
I found a "solution" using a custom EDID http://wiki.openelec.tv/index.php/Config...#tab=Intel
of course I screwed up royally and now when it boots I get
Error in mount_flash: most_common: could not mount LABEL=SYSTEM
cant acess tty job control turned off
I did take a screen shot of a file this procedure edited called extlinux.conf .
My original setting was boot-LABEL-KERN-C disk-LABEL-ROOT-C tty quiet
the instructions had me change it to boot=LABEL=System disk=LABEL=Storage ssh quiet
so my questions are..
is there any way from chromos to edit or delete the files from libreelec ?
if not or still will not boot whats the best way to proceed? run the script again ?
thanks ever so much
you can either mount the partition and edit the file from ChromeOS (using vim), or just reinstall using the script. To do the former, from a terminal shell in ChromeOS:
Code:
mkdir /tmp/system
sudo mount /dev/sda6 /tmp/system
sudo vim /tmp/system/extlinux.conf
(edit / save file)
sudo umount /tmp/system
sudo reboot
changing the volume labels was unnecessary / broke things; all you needed to do was add the parts related to the EDID loading
