I totally understand that. With the Storage option in Recalbox set to AnyExternal, Recalbox was writing boot profiles to every device I plugged in. Since a fresh boot profile gets written, so do basic Kodi files, and every time I'd inadvertently load a boot profile from a drive I didn't intend to, loading either RecalBox or Kodi resulted in my entire rom/media libraries getting overwritten.

I fussed with that option so much trying to get it to work that I was scared of booting into RecalBox with my external hard drives plugged in at all; which means I never saw the option to set a static individual drive as a Storage option.

@Substring

not sure what you mean.. I just did the following as per my previous post:

from the link you provided: http://archive.recalbox.com/updates/v1.0/unstable/
in which I downloaded the Raspberry Pi 3 image recalbox.img (sha1) using link: http://archive.recalbox.com/updates/v1.0/unstable/rpi3/recalbox.img.xz.sha1
I unzipped the IMG file and loaded the image on a fresh new Micro SD card using Win32DiskImager and rebooted the system.

@voljega it's solved since beta4 or 5

remember to save the files you changed, they will most probably overwritten on update

I copied the whole set down and tried it all before I started cutting back to just the working stuff from the list. Don't worry I'll work out what it is. I can always just re-torrent down the few roms and retry.
