Hello everyone
Now that kodi 20a1 is released and libreelec's nightlies use it, I decided to try it on my rpi3b+. It was on le 9.2.8, but since its update to le 10 was delayed until 10.0.2, it was left unused for months now.
So, instead of setting le 10 from scratch, I decided to flash the latest nightly (20220522-ffda0f7 as of today). Everything went fine on first boot, I connected it to my wireless network and shut it down to continue the next day.
And this morning, for the first time ever, I was greeted with a corrupted filesystem notification!
I let it idle for 120seconds, the fixing procedure started and when it reached kodi again, it was not connected to the network. I reconnected it, installed confluence and the greek language pack and shut it down again, because it makes me mad to control it with the tv's remote and I prefer ssh for stuff that can be done that way.
On the next boot, the same message showed up, I let it do the same, it reached kodi again (kodi was in greek and with confluence), but the network had to be set up again. I thought unplugging its power supply might cause the corruption issue, so I left it connected.
Long story short, I shut down or rebooted almost 10 times and half of them showed this recovery message. And once, le started in safe mode, but it booted normally after that. I want to troubleshoot it further, so I want the boot output to be shown.
On the 2 x64 installations of le (9.2.6 and 10.0.2) that I have, I have set a couple of boot parameters in /flash/syslinux.cfg and from this
I now have this
and I have a beautiful boot log showing instead of the splash screen.
On arm architectures though, there is no /flash/syslinux.cfg but a /flash/config.txt which has a lot more text inside it. So, assuming that the forementioned parameters work regardless of the architecture, how can I add them to my rpi too?
I read about the file that has the parameters and how to edit it here
https://wiki.libreelec.tv/configuration/config_txt
and about the boot parameters themselves here (lines 971 to 1069).
