I have tried to install a lot of emuelec addon versions on corelec ( x 96 max plus tv box) but it never fully installed. There is no /storage file. what can i do?
Thank you very much i found it the way you told me but my laptop cant see it. I tried with with winscp but it doesn give permition for connection. Is there a way to put the roms in?
Thank you my friend i managed to get in with paragon linux for windows but its trial version, thank you again
Wouldn’t it be easier to put your ROMs to an USB stick and transfer them to proper storage folder with Kodi File Manager? That’s how I did it, without the need for Paragon software…
“Show hidden files and folders”
Ι will try hidden files. Through coreelec with usb i couldnt manage, maybe because its android tv box and when i press right mouse click in the rom file in order to see the paste option, it goes back. An other thing: When i tried to install emuelec 3.9 and 4.0 and older directly to sd card and rebooted the x96 max plus. After the x 96 max logo, i had only black screen and i heard only the emuelec intro music. After that i unplugged the box. I have a crt tv but it plays emuelec addons. Im sure used the correct dtb.img file because it worked for corellec.
And then there is also this:
Emuelec 4.0: Solution if you don’t have an EEROMS partition
Do you not have an EEROMS partition in windows after the first startup of Emuelec? Follow these these steps:
installation according to Emuelec wiki (if SD is not working try USB!!!)
after the first emuelec boot: USB / SD in a windows computer
go to disk management
Do you see the EEROMS partition here? If so, assign a drive letter (and you’re done!) If not, follow the steps below -
there is no EEROMS partition unfortunately
format the unallocated partition in FAT32, name this partition “EEROMS” (without the “”)
important: leave this partition empty
SD / USB back into TV box and start up
after startup go to emuelec Settings → Danger zone and do all reset options
after that you will see on your computer that all folders in EEROMS have been created and it works
Thank you Betatester, i will try it in about a few days when i buy a new sdcard and i will inform in the same subject.
In this solution about EEROMS: first time i will boot emuelec at windows? Not at tv box?
It’s basically just instructions on how to initialize and format the storage partition on the SD card under Windows. Apparently with the newer versions of emuelec, the storage partition isn’t always initialized on first boot from SD.
From what I gather, you’ll have to:
- insert the SD Card into a memory card reader
- connect to a Windows computer
- open Windows Disk Management
From here there are 2 options:
- The drive has an EEROMS partition:
assign a drive letter to the partition
That’s it, you’re done.
- There is no EEROMS partition:
format the unallocated partition in FAT32
name this partition “EEROMS” (without the “”)
IMPORTANT: leave this partition empty
return SD Card to TV box and power on
go to Settings / Danger Zone and reset everything to default (3x)
reboot the TV box
The partition should now be accessible from Windows.
Same procedure should work for USB Flash drives without needing a memory card reader.
