Help I installed the latest HDhomerun on a NUC and after crashing it goes into safe mode http://ix.io/24wk what do I do ?

Generally spoken, whenever safe mode appears, login by SSH, and enter the reboot command.

Hopefully everything runs fine after that reboot.

Then grab available log files from /storage/.kodi/temp to find the cause of the crash.

The interesting log files after reboot are kodi.old.log and kodi_crashlog_<your_current_date>.log.

Read here about logging on LE.

Your current log says, you have an NFS error:

You have to use the username root to successfully login.

Then you can run the reboot command on SSH. Does it still go into safe mode after reboot?

The instructions of my above link should work for getting the logs (read the tab "Via SSH").

Check your NFS device, because it seems to work with errors.

Yes after reboot it crashes like 3 times then boots into safemode

The crash seems to be caused by the HDHomeRun PVR addon.

When kodi safe mode appears ssh in, delete the addon

Code

rm -rf /storage/.kodi.FAILED/addons/pvr.hdhomerundvr/

and then reboot. Kodi should then start up normally. When kodi is up, try installing the addon again.

Edit: this seems to be an unofficial third-party addon, if kodi crashes again it probably needs to be fixed to be compatible with LE 9.2.

so long,
