Xushi · USB-SD Creator error in MacOS Catalina Xushi November 18, 2020 at 11:06 PM

Same problem here. Until there's a fix, the workaround is

Download and unzip the .img.gz

Code

$ gunzip LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-9.2.6.img.gz

Erase the SD card via Disk Utility as MS FAT (MBR)

Confirm which disk it is, in my case, /dev/disk2

Code

$ diskutil list
<snip>

/dev/disk2 (internal, physical):
#:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
0:     FDisk_partition_scheme                        *32.0 GB    disk2
1:                 DOS_FAT_32 ⁨32G⁩                     32.0 GB    disk2s1

Unmount via diskutil so you don't get a Resource Busy error (doing it via UI did not work for me as CLI would not see the SD anymore)

Code

$ sudo diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk2
Unmount of all volumes on disk2 was successful

Copy the image to SD using dd

Code

$ sudo dd if=LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-9.2.6.img of=/dev/disk2 bs=1m
549+0 records in
549+0 records out
575668224 bytes transferred in 168.306795 secs (3420350 bytes/sec)

That should do it.

Xushi · Is anything still working in LibreElec? Xushi November 18, 2020 at 10:20 PM

Thanks! And I'm relieved to know the project is safe

Good to know, you can consider this issue closed. I see another thread open specifically for the installer issue, will report there if I still am facing it.

Hi,

I can't help but notice nothing seems to be working here, or things look a bit odd..

* I go to the RPi3 link and it shows me the download for RPi2 (maybe they both share the same, but if so it could have been presented better).

* Moving on, I download the macOS version of the installer, but it fails when I run it with error

Code

PasteBoard: Error creating pasteboard: com.apple.pasteboard.clipboard [-4960]
PasteBoard: Error creating pasteboard: com.apple.pasteboar

Script Error

* Ok.. back to the download page, I click on the instructions for the app link, and it redirects me to a 404 page.

* I google around, and find links to the wiki, but clicking on them, libreelec.tv isn't even resolving

Is this project still being maintained? Is something going wrong lately?
