Ok so I started from scratch with another Beelink MiniMXIII box that I had. This time I used the original LibreELEC-S905.aarch64-7.0.2.007.img.gz as opposed to the dev build.

I burnt the image to my micro SD card and then copied the gxbb_p200_2G_beelink_minimxIII.dtb file (renamed to dtb.img) to the root of the SD card.

I inserted the SD into the Beelink box and booted into LibreElec via the toothpick method. It booted into LibreElec with no issues.

I then SSH'ed into the box and used the installtointernal command which went through the install procedure as before however this time when it rebooted I did not get the previous errors I was seeing. The box booted straight into LibreElec from the NAND.

All sorted. Not sure what the problem was with the first installation attempt (possibly user error)

Cheers all

Hi all,

I had the following build running via SD on my beelink miniMXIII :-
devel-20160915211230-r23341-gb83596f ( I replaced the dtb.img file in the build with the minimxIII specific one as per the build install instructions)

Android was present on the NAND.

Once I was happy that the SD LibreElec installation was working as expected I attempted the installtointernal command via SSH :-

LibreELEC:~ # installtointernal
This script will erase BOOT, SYSTEM, DATA and DTB on your device
and install LE that you booted from SD card/USB drive.


It will create a backup of device tree and recovery partition on your boot media                                                                                        .


The script does not have any safeguards!


Type "yes" if you know what you are doing or anything else to exit: yes
Checking filesystem integrity...
Backing up device tree...done.
Backing up recovery partition...done.
Backing up remote.conf...done.
Writing kernel image...done.
Formatting SYSTEM partition...done.
Copying SYSTEM files...done.
Writing device tree image...done.
Formatting DATA partition...done.
Restoring remote.conf...done.
All done! Rebooting in 10s...

upon reboot I was presented with a screen saying that 'Filesystem corruption has been detected!"

An automatic repair was attempted however I got a message saying
"Forced fsck failed. Your system is broken beyond repair.
Please reinstall LibreElec"
The full image is here:- Ckd3J4.jpg

I did a fresh install off LibreElec onto the SD card again which booted fine. However when I use the "Restart from NAND" option from within LibreELEC or remove the SD card and reboot then I get the same "Filesystem corruption has been detected!" message again.

I attempted another "installtointernal" command via SSH again however this time I just get this message :-

Integrity check failed! Do you use a proper device tree?

Any ideas please ? Have I now bricked the NAND? haha

Many thanks in advance

Ok I have figured out how to get the original Android firmware back onto the NAND.

Any ideas the steps that I should take now to get LibreElec onto the NAND without getting the same issue as above again?

Many thanks

Hi all,

I have the Sunvell T95X Amlogic S905X device.

I have used the LibreElec USB-SD creator to burn the latest dev build (LibreELEC-S905.aarch64-7.0-devel-20160915211230-r23341-gb83596f.img.gz) to a micro SD card.

As far as I can see, my device does not have a physical hardware reset button for a toothpick. I have used quick boot, in order to boot to recovery. Can someone please advise the next steps that I need to follow in order to boot LibreElec from the SD card?

Many thanks in advance

Edit - I saw on another thread that I should delete the dtb.img file from the SD card and then reboot to recovery, however I just end up on the Recovery screen (Green android logo).

Any ideas please?

Cheers

All sorted after just creating a dummy.zip file on the root of the SD as mentioned in a previous post.
Inserted the SD card into the device and then used the Android "Update & Backup" tool to select the Dummy.zip file. I then chose the "Update" option and android rebooted into LibreElec as expected.

Cheers
