I think there is no MBR anymore. But it boots because syslinux is actually installed on first partittion. Just guessing but I'm still glad you solve the issue.

Quote from BigBadBen

Code

sudo dd if=/dev/sdX1 of=/media/sda1/usb-stick.img bs=4M
sudo dd of=/dev/sdX if=/media/sda1/usb-stick.img bs=4M
sudo rm /media/sda1/usb-stick.img

what this does, is copy the USB Stick as image to the HDD, then rewrites this image onto the USB stick.

No, it copies first partititon of USB stick to HDD and then copies it back as whole disk. Meaning you lost MBR, partitions table, second partition.

I think if you would delete EFI folder on a USB stick then stick doesn't have any EFI boot capability.

such a small distribution (as is OpenELEC)

Small in what way? As file size or user base?

Known problem and we are working on it.

So it is harmless then

But phpMyAdmin is working or not? I mean can you edit databases? Or you are just looking for warnings?

There is no need of autostart.sh. Instead edit file /storage/.config/ts/ts_env.sh and uncomment and set TSLIB_RES_X and TSLIB_RES_Y. Everything else is done automatically.

Also calibration should be done from Kodi itself with calibration addon. If for some reason it fails then running from console could help.

Any ideas on fixing these issues

It would be very helpful if you would write where/when you get this.

You have no commands after if (only comments). You need to use character : on one line in this case like

if /usr/bin/systemctl list-jobs | /bin/egrep -q 'reboot.target.*start' > /dev/null; then
  : # must use this line
  # reboot
  #  wget -q 'http://192.168.1.203/MainZone/index.put.asp?cmd0=PutZone_OnOff%2FOFF';
else
  # shutdown
  wget -q 'http://192.168.1.42/cgi-bin/system_mgr.cgi?cmd=cgi_shutdown' ;
  wget -q 'http://192.168.1.203/MainZone/index.put.asp?cmd0=PutZone_OnOff%2FOFF';
fi

Great work Grruhn!

Maybe you could write how did you add Faytech driver.

Quote from JimmySmith

how update works? Is it enough to just install latest version

Yes, just update to latest version.

arteck: like I wrote before you can't use network things in shutdown script - network is already stopped at this time.
Use my hack if you want this.

arteck, using network in shutdown script is broken. You need to use alternative approach.

How fast is fast?

Clone Libreelec repo and build libreelec.
Then you will get toolchain build too. You can use it to build somethig outside libreelec build environment.

You create package with looking into one another.

V10lator, why don't you create proper package for your programs and compile them as everything else is done in librelec?

You should make more clear what are you trying to do.
