Pelican The issue started with 8.1.7 or is it present in earlier builds as well?

mount: bad address 'ARCHER_VR600'
Use IP address instead of hostname.

But libhybris how does it work ? How do you use it ?
libhybris is a "wrapper" library to use (some of) Android drivers in pure Linux, i.e. LE. You do not need to care "how to use it", it is compiled in and you do not even know it.
With release 8.1.7 I thought LE would work well with s912 cpu. With future releases maybe all the problems will come.
Please read the notes in the first post again, again and again. I am wondering why are you so stubborn? I am the developer that made LE on S912 possible - don't you believe my words?

So if my device had really 3GB RAM, LibreELEC will normally recognize and use all the RAM (even if I don't know how to use 3 GB memory on LibreELEC) ?
Not really. If your device had 3GB, gxl_p212_3g device tree would boot.

redking It looks like you have only 1GB of real RAM. It's easy to fake it in Android.

Jeffers OP is updated with every release. I still don't recommend S912 for LE.

the_bo Internal or SD?

quitroot With >100 posts you should already know forum rules. Piracy addons discussion is not tolerated.

marck120 Every S905(X/D)/S912 device (except for Xiaomi) can dual-boot LE and Android.

What can I do to make user data partition writable?
Perhaps mount -o rw /storage would help. But that's a guess since I haven't seen any logs and did not experience this issue my self. If you can journalctl -a | paste from the read-only system...

Like I said: I don't provide those addons and have no idea about them, please ask addon author.

Maybe too newbie questions but i need to ask them:
1. Is it safe to write to emmc....and if i perform this would it be possible to update later on....right now i have the latest 8.1.7
2. Right now i see that everything is working....do i need that device tree?
As you can probably see, your post got buried by tons of others...
1. Not recommended but should be safe. Yes, you can update in usual way if installed to internal.
2. To be on the safe side, always use a device tree.

If you look at the changelog you'll se that there are no changes in 8.1.7 that could introduce read-only data partition. I upgraded my S912 box lots of times and never had it. I guess this might be partition corruption. Even if user data partition is read only, you should be able to connect over SSH and execute dmesg | paste to get logs.

I will put this on my todo list. Please don't be angry if it takes some time to care about - perhaps some other developer will find out a solution earlier.

Thank you for confirming that it works. Thread closed.

kszaq, could you please make this functionality optional (through config file or something, like you done it for suspend)?
This is a kernel-level thing, I have no skills (yet) to make it configurable.
