Maybe what is needed is a clear and concise explanation of the options and how they apply to different ChromeBoxes in the form of a manual/.

I do not see anything like a user manual even at MrChromebox.tech 

WHen I ask here the partial response I receive only seems to confuse me even further.

Also there many pages with differing (old?) versions of how to use this. If it were properly documented and updated in one place, it would be helpful.



My question now is how to get my chromebox back to some normal config. 

I would ultimately like to get Kodio in a stand-alone configuration on the SSD and nothing has worked. when installing to SSD. It does however work installing to 1TB external disk from installer .

Running the Libreelec installer created from the menu has also not worked just giving a kernel argument error


Also looking at what I have working now it seems quite convoluted, although it does work. As I understand it If Libreelec is installed to an external disk I should have a bootable Legacy partition on that drive that would boot any x86 , but it does not . In fact it caused Boot to hang on BIOS screen even after repairing the disk from gparted.

I have found no installation of Libreelec on the external disk, in fact what I see is:
(System partition contents)
lost+found (folder)
extlinux.conf
KERNEL
ldlinux.c32
ldlinux.sys
SYSTEM

I suspect Libreelec is actually running off the internal SSD

Not sure how I proceed to get back to square 1, or correct it..
