I have spent day trying to install LE11 on my PI 3A+ which has 512mb installed

but it will not boot, althouth LE10 worked without issue for me, although I only use it for playing music.

LibreElec starts the splashscreen and then returns:

"error in mount storage: mount_common".

and drops you down to a diagnostic screen

it appears to be something to do with memory as the dmesg output has the following error messages many times over

"squashfs failed to allocate zstd workspace"

by changing gpu_mem setting in config.txt from the setting of the issued setting of 76mb upto 256mb i can get it to load to a black screen but nothing else (just thought as i type this perhaps I need to alter hdmi settings to get something to display )

If i re-image the sdcard and put it in a PI 3B with 1024mb of ram it works perfectly and conversley if I then put this installed sdcard back into the PI 3A+ it fails in exactly the same way.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to solve this problem.

I've just discovered the manual upgrade tar files don't appear to available anywhere anymore so whole idea may be a non-starter anyway

Is it possible to move a running libreelec system on a PI 1 B+ to a PI 3

just by dropping the tar file for a rpi 2/3 into the .update folder then moving the sd card from the PI B+ to the PI 3 and rebooting, so it would go through an upgrade procedure

or do I need to do a full re-install on the PI 3 ?

I am currently running the millhouse development version of Libreelec based on Kodi 19 Alpha

is there a version of Snapserver which will run on this yet ?

it appears to be failing because of the move to Python 3 in Kodi 19

For anyone else interested in this, this web page helps a lot

Setting Up Wi-Fi Using the Command Line

Well I can't find the files, in the .config folder no connman folder seems to exist there

but the manual pages for connmanctl make it clear how to do it, so thanks a lot

Is there any way to configure the network without using the gui

I am running a raspberry pi headless as a music player and need to change the network config, but dont have easy access to a monitor

I havent been able to find any obvious network configuration files anywhere on the system

Any pointers gratefully received

great news

thanks

Thanks for updates, I look forward to hearing further about issue.

Obviously I can just stop the logging and the issue will be unnoticed, but I don't like knowing there issues lurking away in the background.

Hello

I've just installed the SnapServer addon onto my rpi3

it seems to be working well except my pulse.log has an error message every 10 secs and I dont know what is causing it

error message is [pulseaudio] sap.c: sendmsg() failed: Connection refused

snapserver & snapclient both report that they are version 9.0.102

librespot reports as version 9.0.113

kodi is 18.0-RC5 Gitc9d65b1
