it wont find them on the initial boot, (sleep 5). once in Kodi reload emulation station after 10 secs or so.
have you put the blank sx05reroms file in the root of your rom directory?

Display MoreI think I leave it, there's no way to find the server roms ...
Searching in google, I found the repository of "bite your idols" the addon Gamestarter, but I think it is only valid for rPi and when I started ES with the s905 it does not work. niabi if you want check it... GitHub - bite-your-idols/Gamestarter: Retrogaming kodi add-on repository for LibreELEC
The good thing that I saw is that it allowed to choose the route of the roms through the kodi file manager, but as I said, it is not functional for the amlogic and I couldn't test, but I saw the roms and I can see them through the file manager.
I tried the route that the "Gamestarted" uses in es_systems.cfg with SX05re, but doesn't work XD
Maybe with Pegasus frontend will be easier?
i have managed to mount my roms on my nas drive following these instructions on the lakka forum (asked the same question on there couple of years back and it still work on this build)
is there anyway to get this to boot into lakka on start-up or via kodi instead of using es?
Es can't find your roms, if you are using a USB make sure you have the file sx05reroms. And make sure the roms are inside a su folder for each system (e.g. NES, SNES)
Just realised I wasn't giving my mounted share enough time to load! Opened es after 30 secs and it's up and running!
Where is it referenced the system names required for the folders? Managed to get snes nes and n64, psx doesn't seem to work?
I'm too looking for help! Exactly the same screen. Got all my roms setup as described in the 1st post.
Is this for minix xh8 ? Running from sd card? Which build are you using ? I'm still using the rc4 build tried to update some time ago but it gave me errors
Yes a minix x8h running from sd card. Using the latest s8x2 build. Working fine. Not tested wifi tho as I always use lan
you should definitely use the M8 builds. the box isn't compatible with other variants in terms of peripherals.
I'm using the build from here LibreELEC-S802.M8.arm-8.0.RC4: LibreELEC-S802.M8.arm-8.0.RC4.img.gz | by Demetris. for MXQ TV Boxwhat's the behaviour you have from your box? maybe I could assist with a step-by-step.
Thanks for the offer!
The latest build released today is working a treat!

managed to run Lakka.tv easily with this:
setenv condev "console=ttyS0,115200n8 console=tty0 no_console_suspend consoleblank=0"
setenv bootargs "${condev} bootfromsd"
mmcinfo
fatload mmc 0 ${loadaddr} kernel
bootmhowever, only the Lakka-S802.M8.arm variant would boot, the S82 variant doesn't boot.
maybe this will help point you in the right direction.
thanks!

managed to run your build for LibreELEC-S802.M8.arm-8.0.RC4
it seems I was missing the right uboot varsI started it with:
setenv condev "console=ttyS0,115200n8 console=tty0 no_console_suspend consoleblank=0"
setenv bootargs "${condev} bootfromsd"
mmcinfo
fatload mmc 0 ${loadaddr} kernel
bootmit expanded the 2nd partition, rebooted and it is now running fine.
thanks and keep up the good work!

I too am getting this issue with the latest 8.0.1 image released on the 25th march. Had no issue with the 12th March version you released? Its as if something has changed bootloader wise between the 2 releases??? several folk seem to be getting this error.
Using the S82 image on a minix x8h
Any chance you can re upload the 12th march 8.0.1 release
Display MoreI will have to check this out, its weird since I have not moved anything related to audio, nor LE 8, I only added my packages, but maybe there is something wrong somewhere. Will check and let you know ASAP.
in the meantime can you do this:
SSH to the box (username root, password sx05re)
if your device is in Kodi, type:
systemctl stop kodiif its in ES type:
systemctl stop emustationthen:
ALSA_CARD=1 SDL_AUDIODRIVER=alsa retroarchthen load a core and see if you get sound, you can also try with ALSA_CARD=0, 2, 3, 4, 5 etc.
and also make sure you are running v1.4 as this was a bug (at least on my device) on LE 8.0.0c and d, but not present on e.
Sorry just seen your reply will try tomorrow and report back
Just got the 8.0 working yesterday on minix x8h , what are the advantages of 8.0.1 and how to update ? I'm running from sd card. Thanks
Use your pc to navigate to your minix box using samba share (windows explorer)
Download the s82 img.gz release and put it in the update folder on your box. Reboot the box and it will update automatically for you
You need a game pad, press and hold a button to configure your game pad you can also configure a keyboard, but I wouldn't recommend it.
[hr]What do you mean by this? RA has no sound? Kodi has no sound? or nothing at all has sound?
No sound at all. The only audio output option I have on this LE release is bluetooth pulseaudio.
On the LE8.0e release which this is based on I get all the audio output options you would expect for my box
Finally got it working on minix x8h. I was holding the recovery and power button pressed and that made it go to recovery menu.
The right way is hold the recovery button and press the power button just once.
Thanks everybody for your help.
Congrats
I did. It showed a screen "No gamepad detected"(or something close to this) and after I attached it still nothing happened.
What gamepad ? I'm using an xbox 1 pad without issue
Installed. No idea how it works.
Go to the power menu and select emulationstation...
I'm losing my audio driver using 1.4.
I've used the standard 8.0e version and all audio options are there?
Using a minix u1 using the minix u1 device tree on both ocations
So i burned the s82 img.gz file using etcher on sd card , enter recovery mode on the minix x8h and pressed reboot , the box always boots to android. What am I doing wrong ?
Pic attached
Did you burn the img.gz with etcher or did you just copy the img.gz file onto the sd card?
If the img.gz is correctly burnt onto the sd card and the sd card inserted to the minix x8h box, the next time you boot into recovery it automatically updates your box to dual boot LE and android with LE being the priority if the sd card is inserted at boot
How can we install lakka on this LE build?
