hi,
On my ASUS CN60, can I boot from a non UEFI bootable legacy thumb drive in standalone mode?
whenever i boot with CTRL-L or CTRL-U I still get the UEFI screen not the Legacy BIOS screen
i am able to boot a UEFI Ubuntu stick, and reran the kodi ez setup script so i just updated from 7/14/17 firmware to the 2018 firmware.
i was hoping to see an option in there to enable old style booting, or to switch to dual boot mode.
is it right that this is only available in the dual boot mode, and if so, how do i switch to that?
thank you
EDIT:
i see theres a 2nd script called the firmware utility script, should i do this?
EDIT:
OK, I followed the procedure above and it worked. I was able to boot my legacy USB stick. Unlike booting into my UEFI stick, My K400 stopped working once booted onto my legacy USB stick, like the Kodi wiki mentioned it might...I had thought I was lucky...
Thank your for your great scripts.
So I guess my only question is, was what I did necessary? Should I have been able to boot either a legacy BIOS stick or a UEFI stick when running the UEFI standalone firmware?

run Firmware Utility Script from my website
choose U to unlock
choose 3 to install/update firmware
choose L for legacy when prompted
after flashing, reboot and reinstall LibreELEC from USB
