After adding echo ".profile loaded" to your .profile is the string printed at login.

Which teminal program and ssh client do you use?

Kernel log for r8169:

kernel/git/stable/linux.git - Linux kernel stable tree

Deadlock in jumbo mode was introduced between 6.6 and 6.6.2 (our kernel bump on 2023-11-20). Only fixed in 6.6.5.

Try default 1500 MTU

kodi.log is no replacement for pastekodi on HW issues. If upload is not working even after a few minutes use

pastekodi -c >myname.log 

and upload the file manually to a site.

Press F10 until volume is maximum in Kodi, increase volume on the TV to max too and try again.

GUI did not allow me to start webserver unless I set up the password

... or you disable authentication via GUI.

But how would I do that in the command line?

I don't know either which setting combinations are allowed in guisettings.xml

The patch does only work for ARM devices. On X86_64 -ENODEV is returned instead of -EOPNOTSUPP when no HW is found.

With ssh you can use kodi-remote from the terminal to control the GUI

a) SYSTEM is no initrd, delete the line (the squashfs image is loaded from boot= FS).

b) Consider loading KERNEL via HTTP URL, it's much faster than TFTP

c) Kernel NFS default to V3. If using a modern NFS V4 server add ,vers=4.2 to the NFS addresses.

Correction: since LE12 file system expansion on first boot is logged to /flash.

fsck on boot is logged to kernel and can be seen with dmesg|grep fsck:. Please note : in default configuration no check is forced as long the file system is clean.

After learning ssh access basics:

mkdir -p /storage/.config/system.d/[email protected]
nano /storage/.config/system.d/[email protected]/fsck.conf

paste the contents and save.

Additional UDEV rule may lead to race with udevil mount rule. Better extent the systemd udevil unit with a drop-in.

To fsck any ext4 file system (and only ext4 fs's) to mount create with path:

[Service]
ExecStartPre=-/usr/sbin/fsck -T -M -p -t ext4 %I

Edit: '-' added to ignore error codes

No. Only /flash and /storage is checked automatically.

Please post log urls of journalctl|paste via ssh for the working and not working case.

For remote DB the local mariadb should have no effect. If kodi does not connect while network is up (you are connected via ssh) this is likely something different.

For complete debug logging insert

<loglevel hide="false">1</loglevel>
<debug>
  <showloginfo>false</showloginfo>
</debug>

to your advancedsettings.xml and activate Database Component Logging in Kodi settings.

Reboot. When Kodi is hanging execute pastekodi via ssh and post the URL.

But would any network issue cause the inability to access the database on localhost?

"localhost" configuration is special. As a mariadb/mysqld feature it is using the unix socket. But Kodi's mariadb-connector-c defaults to /tmp/mysql.sock whereas the mariadb addon is configured to /run/mariadb/mysql.sock.

TL;DR: Unless it is fixed use 127.0.0.1 instead.

logan893 The /storage partition is full. Size expansion is broken in "run" mode of 11.0.3 so only 32 MiBytes are availabl.

Please enlarge the second partition of the stick with a tool like gparted.
