  • You will first need to install LibreElec into the device. Once installed simply create a backup of your current box and use it to restore your new box. Once you have the backup on your computer you can clone as many devices as you want but LibrElec needs to be installed first. Personally I prefer to wipe android and completely replace it with LibreElec.

  • Open kodi fie manager
    Open storage
    If no "backup" folder exists
    Make one
    Open kodi program addons
    Open libreelec configuration
    Press right
    Scroll down
    Click make backup
    It should slide out a window from the right and be at the "backup" folder in storage
    Press right
    Press OK
    Once finished open kodi file manage
    Stick in a USB flash drive
    Open in in A when it appears
    Press right into B
    Open storage/backup
    Highlight the file and fetch up context menu
    Click copy.
    Backup sorted
    On new box
    Open kodi file manager
    Stick USB flash drive in and open in A
    Press right into B
    Open storage
    If no "backup" folder exists
    Make one and open it
    Press left
    Highlight backup file
    Fetch up context menu
    Click copy
    Once finished open kodi program addons
    Open libreelec configuration
    Press right
    Scroll down
    Click restore backup
    Follow on screen instructions
    Wait for it to reboot and copy/restore
    Once rebooted it will be a one2one Clone

  • I believe what Cronic wants is, effectively, a bare metal backup. He wants a [2] GB file which represents all the writeable/readable area on the device so that he can push this binary file onto the new device(s) and end up with absolute clones.

    With linux, I'd use Clonezilla. He'd like to know what program/proce4ss can be used for the device.

    I believe I've explained the problem; I have no idea how it is solved.
