One drastic way is to reinstall/rewrite LibreELEC onto your SDcard, start from scratch, and enable SSH via the welcome wizard. It only takes 1-2 minutes. Then you should be able to SSH right in, instead of dragging on for 12 hours now with the current situation.
OK, reinstalling and selecting SSH worked like a charm.
So my SSD is not being detected. Where can I start on that?

Is there a difference between enabling SSH via the welcome wizard vs. enabling it after the fact? I'm happy to reinstall, just want to learn.
And the default SSH login credentials are root/libreelec, not pi/raspberry.
The password can also be changed under the configuration addon.
I get the exact same result with "root" as the username.
Enabling SSH is a setting in the LibreELEC Settings Add-on. There is no need for SSH-keys just yet, unless you really want to.
Once you are in a SSH session, type:
Codeblkid | pastebinit mount | pastebinit dmesg | pastebinitand provide the generated URL for each command. (Make sure there is an Internet connection)
But I can't get into an SSH session because of the "No supported authentication methods available (server sent: publickey,keyboard-interactive)" error.
I'm learning as I go so please bear with me.
I have the following setup:
Raspberry Pi 4
Geekworm x825 Expansion board for SSD (SSD is NOT for boot, just storage)
Geekworm x735 Power management board
SSD drive
I made a LibreELEC installation microSD card, installed LibreELEC no problem. It boots up and launches Kodi. Worth mentioning: I didn't select "enable SSH" at setup, but I have enabled it after the fact.
Problem 1: When I go to storage, it doesn't list my SSD, it's not detected. This drive works, I set it up with my Windows PC. I researched online, but almost everyone with a similar issue is connected via USB instead of an expansion board, so their solutions didn't apply to me. I have no idea where to even begin.
Problem 2: I can't access the terminal. I'm trying to use PuTTY. The IP Address is correct. When I type in "pi" as the default username, I get the message:
"No supported authentication methods available (server sent: publickey,keyboard-interactive)"
In the past I have never had to mess with keys, I just logged with username: pi, password: raspberry, so this part is totally uncharted territory. I used PuTTYGen to make a key, I went to SSH>Auth to point PuTTY to the key location and it just tells me "Can't use key file." Researching online I've seen that people are generating SSH-2 key files but I only have the option to generate an SSH-1 key file in PuTTYGen. No idea if that matters, just thought it's worth mentioning.
Every solution I've found online just leads me to a new dead end. I feel like I'm missing something here. Can you guys please help walk me through this?
Thank you
