i dont know if i am here on the right place, but i thnk i have the same problem.
I used my Wetek play 1 (openelec box) for a long time now for netflix with Coreelec (compiled trunk) + Libreelec. Only the initial/first flash coming from LE8 to LE9 is working.
Any upgrade within LE9 versions is only possible if you do it manually. The message is always "system or kernel" not found - as far as i remember
a.)
LibreELEC-WeTek_Play.arm-8.90.009.img.gz into .update will lead to:
Missing (target) kernel.img or SYSTEM!
b.)
LibreELEC-WeTek_Play.arm-8.90.009.tar into .update will lead to:
Missing (target) kernel.img or SYSTEM!
My manual upgrade steps are like following:
1.) cp system + kernel to rw mounted /flash
=> no space left message
2.) reboot and in minimal linux which is starting
cp system + kernel again from USB stsick to rw mounted /flash
=> after a reboot everything is now working
mount -o remount,rw /flash
cp KERNEL /flash/KERNEL
cp SYSTEM /flash/KERNEL
I have also reinstalled my Wetek Play1 with the latest LibreELEC-WeTek_Play.arm-8.2.5.zip, but the size of /flash will remain.
Is there any possibility to resize nand flash to a bigger size?
my size is also like this:
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
devtmpfs 426.0M 0 426.0M 0% /dev
/dev/ubi0_0 200.5M 117.2M 78.6M 60% /flash
/dev/loop0 116.5M 116.5M 0 100% /
....
many thanks for your help - if possible
Later on i will try it with bennis workaround
##### Edit
benni0815
your Workaround is fully working and it seems that you are right
i have created now like you described this post-flash.sh file and then the upgrade went fine with the tar file.
