It is recommended to use the CLI, but there are many places describing how to use it, so I don't want to write complex documentation for this.
Codemkdir /storage/.config/dockers docker run \ --name=portainer \ --restart unless-stopped \ -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \ -v /storage/.config/dockers/portainer/data:/data \ -p 9000:9000 \ -d portainer/portainer-ce
Thanks dtech,
It worked... Great. I appreciate your help.
I have not noticed any boot time change between USB boot (multiboot) and SDcard only boot.
Normally, once boot, I always keep it on or on standby mode & use remote to wake-up.
In this build, power-off have only 3 option (power off, custom shutdown & restart), don't have 4th option for suspend (sleep). I had to override in setting - power saving - Force suspend instead of poweroff .
I installed docket but how to install portainer? It's not in add-on. Needs to use CLI?
Basically, I don't know how many people would use USB boot, but I'm strongly thinking about reworking these bootscripts because I don't want to restore them in their current state.
some how, mine SD card keeps removing by it self & I need USB for sure. However, USB has advantage of fast & space with $ point of view.
Good new dtech,
My M8S boots with files you provided.
LibreELEC-Universal_n200_2G.arm-9.2.8.15.img.gz used for flashing USB drive.
From your attachment, unzipped 3 files in root folder ( aml_autoscript file replaced ) of USB & booted straight from USB flash-drive. I already had multiboot activated from previous installed so I do NOT have to use toothpick first time.
Koodi works fine. Everything works - IR remote, bluetooth, ethernet & WIFi (2.4G & 5G), 2Gb ram (Shows 1524 MB). Also triangle blue light on and off works.
Thanks dtech & chewitt... Please keep the great work...
Now, next is docker. I have to still work on it & will post results in next day or so.
Sorry dtech, I was away & had no access to read the forum & replies from you and chewitt.
I will try yours bootscrips & posts result. If does not work, I will upload old image I have with me.
I really want to use docker support.
Thanks again dtech and chewitt
Hi dtech,
I have two M8S - one running Ubuntu Armbian & other Libreelec (balbes150) - both boots from USB flash drive using multiboot.
On 1st you clearly mentioned that for S812 tvbox, "S805 and S8X2 devices can only be booted from an SD card".
Means USB flash drive boot not possible with your image.
I tried your image from USB and do not boot from USB or SD card - because of Multiboot.
However, If I remove multiboot, by using your image on SD card & toothpick holding, it boots from SD card. Works good. I don'thave to use toothpick from 2nd boot. It boots from SD card.
I want to use your new docker support. My both M8S boxes, after few minutes (3 to 10 min.) randomly removed SD card on and off. Afterwards, I can not store or read from SD card. It's for any image not only yours. Even if I boot into Android, SD card removed message always comes. I have tried at least 10 different SD cards (good brand), same results.
Is it possible to make your image compatible to Multiboot?
If I use your image with first time toothpick, it does not boot balbes150 image or Ubuntu image.
Thanks in advanced.
W000hhoooo, I will verify & report you back...
- TCL Supercars 4K Demo.mp4 -> 100 Mbps Ethernet is not enough for this bitrate, always buffering.
This plays without buffering or frameskip from a USB key.
is this good?

Hi, dtech,
The above sample file plays buttery smooth over the network.
Also,
TCL: Supercars UHD 4K Demo | 4K Media - plays (80 to 85%) smoothly with two times buffering within the entire video + some times frame skips.
No 10-bit. Only initial H265 8-bit videos
Hi dtech,
I tried your M8S+ version, everything works except for Remote & Bluetooth.
All H264 videos works. H265 video 1080p some works but higher vibrate do not.
Did not tried any plugins.
Thanks, Knaerzche,
Greatly explained. In short, the vendor needs to provide rate settings for the new kernel.
XFS formatted hard drive works in the latest nightly built (nightly-20210311-3f55efc). Files can be copied using SMB as well as plays well.
This build has two problems (not related to XFS):
(1) Rock64 - not providing 1440p resolution for 32" monitor. (Actually all LE10-nightly)
(2) LibreElec repository broken. Kodi repository works. (LE rep works in 2021-03-08)
Thanks Chewitt,

Hi Dtech,
I have M8S: Amlogic S812 SoC, 2 GB RAM, 8 GB NAND Flash, 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
PCB ID - do not know
commits added....... Simply Great,
Thanks again
Ya, another thing, if you want to release nightly builds for xfs support, I'm available to test
