Wrong log. Wrong thread.

"none" means Samba default which is SMB3, so you need to force SMB1

There are no official images for RK hardware at this time. That will change in the mid-term future, but how our currently unwritten code runs on that box needs a crystal ball and some imagination.

Logs are not debug logs so they don't contain anything on the URLs being called.

Sounds like an issue with EDID and modelines. Pastebin a Kodi debug log after clean boot for a starting point.

Some boxes have slow loading network drivers that cause the initial repo update check to fail, which can result in there being "no add-ons in the repo!!!" .. so if it happens again just force refresh the repo and/or add a startup delay to Kodi via LE settings, and all will be fixed.

Pastebin a Kodi debug log file.

CONFIG_HID_MAGICMOUSE needs to be set in our kernels

Samba versions before 4.7 default to making NT1 (SMB1) connections and since 8.1.0 our embedded Samba server only speaks SMB2+

Remove "protocol = SMB2" because this is a server configuration item that has no effect on smbclient. You need to set this instead:

client min protocol = SMB2

This assumes the version of Samba installed on Mint is 4.1+ to support SMB2. It will also 'break' connectivity with anything else in your network that can only speak SMB1 as the client is now forced to SMB2 or higher.

This should not be required once the version of Samba installed in Mint is 4.7+

Full and clean logs after a reboot, not the last 6 mins after everything has rotated.

LE settings controls the embedded Samba server. Kodi settings control the smb client that accesses shares on the Win7 box.

In other words; changing server settings will not result in the Kodi client using SMB1.

In recent times most Broadcom stuff is mainlined and should be reliable. There is a lot of old crap still in circulation though, where there's a dogs-breakfast mix of things that require different (ID overlapping) drivers and things that are not supported on Linux for some reason. Not the worst offender (Realtek have that crown) but not blameless either.

Not supported, and will not be supported. Time to invest in a Raspberry Pi to sit alongside the NAS.

Index of /test/ has 8.2.0.1 files with the same patch applied

Change the disk label and then change extlinux.conf to use disk=LABEL=newlabel .. beware there are two instances depending on whether the box EFI boots or not, the second is under the EFI folder.

With the fixed image the box might struggle but it won't deadlock when opening the file. Don't expect miracles on an RPi2 though.

Console on CTRL+ALT+F3 depends on the device and whether a local console is configured in boot commands (which vary by device).

What hardware?
