I am only interested in using Libreelec, no dual boot. We are using the current release of LibreElec, not an alpha or beta.
yes, simply set up the new Chromebox3 as a standalone LE, backup on old device, restore on the other. I'd highly recommend updating the CB3 to the latest LE beta/Kodi RC (after restoring the backup), since the older kernel in 8.2.5 stable is simply suboptimal for the Kabylake SoC. Also, be aware that HD Audio passthru likely won't work with a USB-C/HDMI 2.0 adapter; you'll need to use the native HDMI 1.4b output for that.
FWIW, I've been using a CB3 as my main Kodi box since release last spring.
