Download source
cd ~ git clone https://github.com/T-Firefly/LibreELEC.tv.git
Start to compile
cd LibreELEC.tv/ PROJECT=Rockchip DEVICE=RK3328 ARCH=arm UBOOT_SYSTEM=roc-cc make image
The compiling process typically takes 9-12 hours on first run if you did not pre-fetch sources and 3-4 hours if you did.
Once the build completes the finished image will be in the ~/LibreELEC.tv/target/ directory.
Appending “make image” will generate an .img.gz file that can be written to USB/SD card media to create a new installation,
and a .tar file for updating an existing installation.
