i am experiencing this - as said i am using debian sid:

--- cut from libreelec forum - been getting the same with openelec, but it was fixed in the last versions) ---
LibreELEC is using host tools for formatting EXT4 partition. And Debian is using newer version of ext2 filesystem utilities
which supports some new filesystem feature called metadata_csum. But e2fsprogs 1.42.13 used by LibreELEC doesn't understand that. And populatefs fail at the end.

There are 3 possible solutions:
1.) If whole build is already done then mke2fs should disable some features (64bit,metadata_csum).
The line should look like this in file scripts/mkimage:
Code:
mke2fs -F -q -t ext4 -m 0 -O ^64bit,^metadata_csum "$LE_TMP/part2.ext4"
2.) For new builds e2fsprogs package should be bumped to 1.43.3
file packages/sysutils/e2fsprogs/package.mk
3.) remove feature metadata_csum from /etc/mke2fs.conf
for advanced users only!

---end cut

I took the first option and generated ok need to test

Why don't you go with option 2? It is the easiest and it is distro agnostic.

best solution  downgrade your e2fsprog from sid or use a stable distro version

and if the whole build is done remove e2fsproges from de build and .stamps directory ,adjust the e2fsprogs package.mk

there is no need to build all the packages again

as example

  1. PKG_VERSION="1.43.4"
  2. PKG_ARCH="any"
  3. PKG_LICENSE="GPL"
  4. PKG_SITE="https://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net/"
  5. PKG_URL=https://fossies.org/linux/misc/e2fsprogs-1.43.4.tar.gz
  6. # https://sourceforge.net/projects/e2fsprogs/files/e2fsprogs/v1.43.4/e2fsprogs-1.43.4.tar.gz/download
Copy code


and just execute again your build command so it only rebuilds e2fsprogs so that it supports metadata

no hassle with commands in scripts

compiling builds like openelec ,libreelec ,armbian etc are mostly best done on a stable distro .like a ubuntu 16.04/10 or a jessie from debian

Hi thc013 ,

I am really interested to get Libreelec and Kodi 17 running on Orange PI.
Have you had success building images yet?

I tried to build some with your github version of LibreElec, but it failed on many patches.
I am very new to build libreelec so it's properly something I am doing wrong.

regards,
delta
