It depends on how the backup was taken and then restored. Kodi is quite portable but the usual problem is the inclusion of filesystem paths that are not going to be the same under different OS platforms. You'll also have issues with binary add-ons.

e2label /dev/sdb1 new-label-name-here^ this assumes the USB drive is ext2/3/4 formatted and you want to label the first partition on the /dev/sdb device; hence /dev/sdb1

You probably need to set the alsa audio configuration. What is the model number? - e.g. A1234 or like 4,1 in Apple's base,variant format.

You will not receive support in this forum while there are banned repo's installed on your device:

Is the router acting as an Ethernet switch between two devices in the same network, or is it actually routing between the HTPC in one network and a remote location where the server is located? (over the leased line).
100-BaseT is fast enough for streaming BR discs.

Ethernet or crappy wifi? In a local network there should be no need to fiddle with cache settings, ever.

If the bug is unresolved upstream, it remains unresolved downstream.

Performance under Windows has fcuk all to do with performance under Linux. One of these days Intel will release a reliable Linux WIFI driver and thousands of NUC users will rejoice.

Use the "date" command: UNIX Date Command Examples – nixCraft
If you want it to persist over reboots invest in one of the inexpensive mods that adds an RTC chip and battery to the Pi.

It is not possible to edit or add files to /usr/bin as that path is inside a read-only squashfs file (that expands into a virtual filesystem on boot). Any changes there need to be made a image compile time; with a small number of exceptions where we support boot-time override of embedded files with content in /storage/.config/
What exact file are you attempting to modify?

using a corrupted image? .. is the obvious explanation

If it works you'll see duplicate wireless network names in the connections list; one will be from the wlan0 interface and another will be from the wlan1 interface. In the long run (once you have a working USB device) it might make sense to blacklist the driver for the internal wireless card to prevent it loading at boot-time, then you will only see one set of networks.

Make sure the filesystems are clean, i.e. unmounted properly in Windows, else Linux often objects and fails to mount things to be safe.
dmesg usually offers some clues on the issue

Samba looks for /storage/.config/samba.conf at startup and if found it's used as the active configuration. If not found it falls back to the embedded configuration in /etc/smb.conf

Suzhou SmartChip Semiconductor Co.,Ltd FCC ID Applications (2AKCE) - the phone diverts to voicemail and both voice/email messages left (in Mandarin by a native speaker) are not answered. Via third-parties we've been offered the driver in binary form for any Android kernel version we care to ask for, but nobody has sources, which is what we need. I can assure people we've been quite creative on trying to reach them - but so far no results.

It's possible, but Amlogic boxes currently use an older 3.14 Linux kernel so the list of USB wireless devices that might work is smaller than hardware like Raspberry Pi which uses a current kernel. There is no definitive list of devices we support (too many combinations to document).

It was a group decision in OE days to discontinue them and there are no plans to reinstate i386 builds. It's still possible to re-add support and self-build a working i386 image though, e.g. GitHub - maideii/LibreELEC.tv-Intel-i386: Just enough OS for KODI appears to have done the core mods for i386 builds with an Intel GPU and it looks reasonably up-to-date, so if you clone his branch you should be able to run "PROJECT=Generic ARCH=i386 make image" and get something that works (self-build instructions are in the wiki). If you have AMD or nVidia GPU's there are probably some missing commits, but nothing hard to track down; from memory you can crib nVidia bits from my appletv-7.0 branch.
