I didn't bother enabling ssh but now LibreELEC won't start & I need to ssh in and tinker. Is there a way to turn on the ssh server without using Kodi's menus? Perhaps a kernel parameter I can pass through Syslinux to get a debug shell.
enable ssh without GUI

You forgot to tell us you platform an LibreELEC version.
Mentioning syslinux I assume Generic 9.2.3.
You can add the kernel parameter ssh to force sshd start and/or systemd.debug_shell to get a shell with Ctrl-Alt-F3.

Thanks so much. I'll give that a try.
Yes it is 9.2.3. Apologies for leaving that out.

/or systemd.debug_shell to get a shell with Ctrl-Alt-F3
Does that still work, I thought that was taken out, or disabled somehow.

It was changed from tty to systemd.debug_shell and is not enabled by default any more. At least working on Generic with Intel and AMD GPUs. If there is a volunteer with NVIDIA HW feel free to test.
It is still enabled for installer but unfortunately currently not working because needing additional configuration, see libreelec 9.2.3 console does not open using control+alt+F3! and PR4494
