  • Binary addons are version specific, so to install a 9.0.108 addon you'd need to be running a 9.0 codebase LE image. It using an 8.1 image it won't install due to missing dependencies. In any case the system-tools addon does not provide a GUI terminal/console app.

    Generic x86_64 images can start a local console on CTRL+ALT+F3 if "tty" is in kernel boot params (if absent it's not started). An alternative is adding "textmode" to boot params and the OS boots directly to a console (Kodi is not started). All LE images support booting in textmode, but "tty" is only supported on Generic.

  • is their a chrome plugin for kodi ?

    the issue is i need to solve why no network is available , and need a terminal access ...
