      SO, i have my recalbox installed on a 32 GB micro SD card. But i'm going to travel so i made everything into a box. I used an old screen and connected everything and it works. But as i'm going to travel, i decided to change my storage from the micro sd to an old 300 gb hard drive i had lying around. I added the games and everything and recalbox is able to read my external hard drive, but whenever i try to access it from kodi, it just wont show up, which is weird because the first time i booted the system up, it did show my media and played everything correctly, but now... nothing. I've formatted my disk twice now, but i think the issue lies in the fact that this is the hard drive that my old laptop used to have and i managed to salvage it. I thought i had done it properly because on windows it shows the full disk, but now that i've been using linux i get this:

      Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type
      /dev/sdb1 * 2048 3074047 3072000 1.5G 27 Hidden NTFS WinRE
      /dev/sdb2 3074048 596219903 593145856 282.9G 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
      /dev/sdb3 596219904 625141759 28921856 13.8G 17 Hidden HPFS/NTFS

      and in kodi it just shows one while on recalbox i get those three options to choose from when i want to change the system configurations... Any ideas on what can i do?

        Although, I also have a recalbox, and the steps are clearly defined in this Kodi SuperRepo Tutorial, but I am unable to get it fired on the Recalbox. Are there any potential addons left in the repo?
