It seems that the partition did not get resized.
I've re-uploaded the storage.img.gz image. Please re-download and try it again.
My brother yesterday resize the partition manually and all works fine now.
Thank for all your help.
The problem was that original storage.img.gz
I'm afraid you are making false conclusions here. Let's make it more clear:
- /dev/system - this is internal read-only partition with system files (that's where LibreELEC or Android is installed)
- /dev/data - that is internal partition used for storage (it is not there because you are not using it)
- /dev/mmcblk0p1 - this is first partition on your SD card
- /dev/sda1 - that would be first partition on your USB driveNow please try again to create the storage on SD card or USB drive using the storage.img.gz with LibreELEC USB-SD Creator and see if it gets correctly resized to the size of your device upon first boot.
Thanks for your reply.
/dev/mmcblk0p1---- 27.0mb is very small in my brother's case.Can it resize with partition program only and should work fine?
how many partitions after properly making storage on sd card we should see?
Sorry, I'm not going to create another version. It would cause even more confusion and it would take a lot of time as I would have to make all following versions twice.
Please read the above guide carefully. Is it really so hard to follow? You don't need to create the ext3 manually anymore, just use the provided image of empty storage.
My problem is different, the unit will boot no problem (is empty LIBReElec)but is no more available storage to load repos.Please take look at my screen capture
Hi,
I'm trying to help my brother to get this running since his box is old g-box midnight.
1.He was able to update to 8.01 from 6.03 openelec.He did create the SD card 2gig size with ext3 and LIBREELEC_DISK label for the first boot.
But in his situation the card need to be always in the unit or otherwise giving him error and when he trying to load repository around 120mb size
error coming that is not enough space after 8% loading.
Looks to me the creation of Libreelec_disc is not correct to tell the unit to use external storage since his internal do not have more space only 6kb.
Please advise
This is update to my previous post.
Please take a look at the partition from the attached picture.
It looks to me that the internal storage is full.But why?
/dev/mmcblk0p1 27mb total, used 26.3 and free 1kb 100% used
then external (original card is 29.6 gig) after creating LIBREELEC_disc with the LibreELEC USB-SD Creator size became small and stays small at 867.8mb
/dev/system total 867.9 mb 123 mb was used and free are 729mb is only 14% used. ( he still should be able to use this one)
My conclusion is; either the unit is redirecting new repos only to internal storage (and from KOPRajs post: after creating disc image the device should use external storage) since external has some space.The other problem could be that the external should have different name not /dev/system/
I'm hoping to someone point me in right direction.
Can someone please post the screen shot of filesystem with external storage to be used for repository files.
Thanks in advance
TA-DA! LibreELEC working!
Setting "boot=/dev/mmcblk0p1" and "disk=/dev/mmcblk0p2" and replaced bootloader.img on the original with androiddualboot
TV Headend running on AMLogic DVB-S2 "Android TV" box - Tvheadendtnx!
wi-fi does not work(
Can you tell me why you replace bootlader.img and setup "boot=/dev/mmcblk0p1" and "disk=/dev/mmcblk0p2" ____ what was your problem ?
I'm trying to get some repository loaded but I'm getting the error no space even I had LibreElec boot from sd card.
any help appreciated
Try Addons -> Install from repository -> LibreELEC Add-ons -> VideoPlayer InputStream -> you know what
You need to enable SSH service in LibreELEC Configuration -> Services before connecting to SSH.
This is simular sitution to me as well ( no addons to add empty Libreelec) addition I have no storage space and I bealive thats why.
Please help
What does it mean "couldn't get any addons to function"? If you don't see anything under the Enter add-on browser section from main menu try Addons -> Install from repository -> ...
If you want to use the internal NAND for storage you need to login via SSH and run the tune2fs command from OP. Then you can remove the external SD card or USB drive. The not enough space problem might be caused by a small storage partition. You can try to create it from this image (storage.img.gz) using LibreELEC USB-SD Creator. It is only 512 MB but it is set to be automatically resized to a whole device upon first boot.
Hope this helps!
On the internal storage looks like is no more space due to defective nand.
The only option for him is to create external storage propertley.(My question is why he need to keep the card all the time in?? ---- without card hi is getting the eror.)
How to create correctly external drive? to make sure the unit will give him an option to load some repisatory like Aries, etc..... but that require space.
thanks
