Anything in systemctl list-dependencies storage-ServerFolders-Videos.mount?

systemd supportsRequiresMountsFor=/path/.. in [Unit] section.

These modifications are only needed to disable a real power button like the case power switch.

Most remotes do not have the feature, then the <power> key is mapped to Shutdown() in the Kodi keymap.

You can try some additional logging. Boot without USB drives and log into ssh. Type:

udevadm monitor >udev.txt

Attach a failing drive and press <Ctrl>-c after a short time. Then:

journalctl >journal.txt

Post the two files.

But there is no guarantee that there are any findings.

1) What type of network (WLAN, ethernet, ...) are you using?

2) Did you try this:

if so pls force a refresh of the repos -> go to addons -> Download -> left side panel -> check for update

Remember when you moved your cable from HDM1 to HDMI2.

More serious: remove all EDID kernel parameters to start with auto detection again.

One final thought: did you check if one of the graphics cards can be forced in the BIOS options?

At a guess:

cp /lib/udev/rules.d/97-xorg.rules /storage/.config/udev.rules.d/

In the copied file remove the line starting with DRIVER=="i915", and reboot.

Which videos do not play?

I'm still testing on my AMD C-60 netbook with HD 6250 and it woks up to 1080p/1080i h.264.

Free space check is done here.

To i.e. check if your large drive is detected correctly open python and type:

import os
s=os.statvfs('/var/media/xstorage')
s
s.f_bsize*s.f_bavail

/boot/grub/custom.cfg can be used instead of (or in combination with) /etc/grub.d/40_custom with the advantage no update-grub is needed after editing.

update-grub

Oh, yes. Forgot that's not common to use /boot/grub/custom.cfg

lost+found is normal for ext? file systems and may be created even without error.

LE_SYSTEM can be even formatted FAT32, only LE_DATA needs ext4.

Quote from brainsoft

I mounted the LE_SYSTEM partition in Ububtu [...]

That is really odd. You can try the same with grub console. On the grub boot menu press 'c' to open the console. Then:

ls -l (hd0,5)/

I have no experiences with rEFInd but in general you have to pass 'boot=LABEL=LE_SYSTEM disk=LABEL=LE_DATA quiet nosplash' as parameters when booting the KERNEL file.

The "ext2" module supports ext2, ext3 and ext4.

Quote from brainsoft

error: file `/KERNEL' not found.

Most likely the kernel file is not named "KERNEL". Please keep in mind that ext4 is case sensitive.

Better avoid the number game:

menuentry "LibreELEC (KODI)" {
  insmod part_gpt
  insmod ext2
  search --set=root --label LE_SYSTEM
  linux /KERNEL boot=LABEL=LE_SYSTEM disk=LABEL=LE_DATA quiet nosplash
}

CvH thanks for the testbuild. I only liked to avoid an untested PR.
