OpenELEC Dual Boot

How to dual boot(actually Triple boot) OpenELEC with Ubuntu and Windows.

• OpenELEC itself requires at least 2 partitions.

• Create the first partition, EXT4
• Label it 'OE_SYSTEM', size 512MB to 1GB.
• The OE_SYSTEM partition must be flagged as bootable.
• Both operating system files, SYSTEM and KERNEL, must be placed into the OE_SYSTEM partition (assume /dev/sda6)

• Create the second partition, EXT4
• Label it 'OE_DATA', size.
• Here all local OpenELEC/XBMC data will be placed, such as databases and thumbnails (assume /dev/sda7)

• Write down the linux drive letters & update the below file with it
• Unlike Grub, Grub2 starts partition counting from 1 not 0.

• Now update Grub2:

sudo gedit /etc/grub.d/40_custom

#!/bin/sh
exec tail -n +3 $0
# This file provides an easy way to add custom menu entries.  Simply type the
# menu entries you want to add after this comment.  Be careful not to change
# the 'exec tail' line above.
#
menuentry "OpenELEC" {
   search --set=root --label OE_SYSTEM --hint hd0,msdos6
   linux /KERNEL boot=LABEL=OE_SYSTEM disk=LABEL=OE_DATA quiet
}
menuentry "OpenELEC debugging" {
   search --set=root --label OE_SYSTEM --hint hd0,msdos6
   linux /KERNEL boot=LABEL=OE_SYSTEM disk=LABEL=OE_DATA debugging
}

Now finalize the grub menu additions:

sudo update-grub

LibreElec Shutdown Button

Source: libreelec.tv, lowpowerlab.com

• Install Raspberry Pi Tools from libreELEC UI:

Program ---> Get more ... ---> Raspberry Pi Tools ---> install

nano /storage/.config/shutdown_pi.py

#!/bin/python  
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO  
import time  
import os
import sys

sys.path.append("/storage/.kodi/addons/virtual.rpi-tools/lib")

# Use the Broadcom SOC Pin numbers  
# Setup the Pin with Internal pullups enabled and PIN in reading mode.  
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)  
GPIO.setup(3, GPIO.IN, pull_up_down = GPIO.PUD_UP)  
 
# Our function on what to do when the button is pressed  
def Shutdown(channel):  
  os.system("poweroff")  
 
# Add our function to execute when the button pressed event happens  
GPIO.add_event_detect(3, GPIO.FALLING, callback = Shutdown, bouncetime = 2000)  
 
# Now wait!  
while 1:  
  time.sleep(1)

nano /storage/.config/autostart.sh

#!/bin/bash
(
/storage/.config/shutdown_pi.py
)&

• Make files executable

chmod +x shutdown_pi.py 
chmod +x autostart.sh
