CoreELEC is focusing their efforts on the old SDK instead...
And what is wrong with that? Completely nothing! They keep old devices still in use with kodi 18 with this old sdk. Because mainline is currently not usable for generic use. If you confess that or not. And when mainline will be in shape they will use it too.
Are you a provocateur or want to look like the smartest?
CE has linux 4.9, here going development of 5.0. What are you want to say?...
It is about telling users that there is alternative which is currently better than LibreELEC. Most users wants working device right? Why the hell would any regular user install a build which doesn't have a sound? To tell developer that? I'm sure they already knows that.
It was the same when LE fork happen - there were telling on OE forum about it.
I don't understand what is happening in your case but as soon password is changed from addons settings and get back to home menu mysql server is restarted and password is changed:
LibreELEC.tv/mariadb.start at master · LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub
Anyway, password is set in file /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/service.mariadb/settings.xml.
Changing password directly from mysql could have some side effects (like changing it to something else after restart). I newer even tested such
scenario.
There is Virtual filesystem addon which should support playing from rar files.
Alos there is rar2fs binary - use search function for it.
Then look line by line your scripts?
I build audit package for x86 if this is the arch you are using. But I didn't test it and should be run manually with specifying config files or folders or whatever.
Update: Audit is not enabled in kernel so userspace tools are useless anyway 
# CONFIG_AUDIT is not setIf these are "your" files then no other process should use them anyway. How they are reset? On reboot or in the middle?
Which files are changing?
I personally newer had start problem.
Check log file if you see anything useful there: /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/service.mariadb/mysqld.log
If not try to reinstall addon.
@things are not supported in cron from busybox.
More crontab @reboot command in LE
In autostart.sh just add sleep command for few seconds or make better way until network is really up (like loop until file is succcesfully downloaded) and then download file. Don't put this commands in background.
Loop like
for i in $(seq 1 120); do
curl -m 5 --retry 2 --retry-max-time 5 -o /storage/downloads/file.m3u8.tmp http://server/path/file.m3u8
if [ "$?" = "0" ]; then
# dl ok
mv /storage/downloads/file.m3u8.tmp /storage/downloads/file.m3u8
sync
break
fi
rm -f /storage/downloads/file.m3u8.tmp
sleep 1
done(
sleep 5
) &
/storage/.kodi/myscript.sh &
This doesn't make much sense because sleep is executed in background and myscript is executed at the same time.
True, PATH can't be set here because it is overwritten later.
But bin folder from addon is automatically add to it. So move everything under /storage/.kodi/addons/node.js folder.
My all commands to make it happen:
mkdir -p /storage/.kodi/addons/node.js/profile.d
cd /storage/.kodi/addons/node.js
echo "export NODEJS_HOME=/storage/.kodi/addons/node.js" >profile.d/node.js.profile
wget https://nodejs.org/dist/v10.15.3/node-v10.15.3-linux-armv6l.tar.xz
tar --strip-components=1 -xf node-v10.15.3-linux-armv6l.tar.xz
rm node-v10.15.3-linux-armv6l.tar.xz
# exit terminal and login again
LibreELEC:~ # node -v

If you change in file syslinux.cfg line DEFAULT installer to DEFAULT run it will run from this same stick. and no need to install it anywhere.
Create file /storage/.kodi/addons/http://node.js/profile.d/node.js.profile and put both export variables NODEJS_HOME and PATH inside.
This doesn't work even within the same bash script; it says node can't be found.
What is the exact error?
And isn't S912 just arm (32 bit)?
Do you even have folder /storage/nodejs/node-v10.15.3-linux-arm64 ? Because what you wrote is correct and should work - at least it does here:
LibreELEC:~/nodejs # node -v
v10.15.3Pay attention. To properly boot the system to SD card on Odroid N2 you need to switch the startup u-boot was installed on SD\eMMC. (that is, the position that is used in the release of equipment from the plant).
I know this is Google translate but come on 
I don't know anyone who would have QP.
Maybe in 2 or 3 years there will be something
But thank you for your work anyway.
Maybe you need to change User-Agent in Chrome?
