Can you describe what installation image you are using, and what happens when you boot the image from stick? If it's a real installer, there should appear the option to install on your HDD.

PS: If you don't see any target drives to install, reformat your HDD with a tool like "GParted Live". You can run it from stick, too. It's interesting whether the tool can "see" your HDD while running from stick.

The result should be a single, error-free partition (ext3 for example) with no boot flag set. Try to run the LE installer on that setup.

I'm using a 350gb hard drive, hooked up on a usb adapter I use to read hard drives and program them for pcs. It reads like a usb drive! But the libreelec creator won't pick it up, no matter how it's formatted 32gb 64gb or full 320 will recheck ntfs or fat only other factors that I can think of! Otherwise I should be able to program the drive and install it straight to the pc and run like a os

It's not clear what you're trying to do. Are you wanting to wipe windows and install LE on your pc's hard drive?

Yes exactly what I'm trying to do

sorry for the late response to everyone! Thanks so much for your time and help, yes that's exactly what I was trying to do is run the pc hard drive off libreelec instead of just a usb. The same as you would load a windows os was hoping there was a way to do permanent libreelec on a hard drive? I have a older pc to use, it boots off a usb bypassing the hard drive so why wouldn't it be able to run on a drive? Or have libreelec creator's never gone this route?

I am trying to make a older pc into a libreelec media pc! I figured just use usb creator on my hard drive using my usb hard drive adapter, wont work doesn't read it no matter what I do or partition size 32 64 320 none will read!

Since the usb boots and bypasses windows os I know this has to be possible
