  Quote  1. Have you tried configuring a wireless dongle and SSH'ing into the thing ? Depending on your answer to question 3 it may not be strictly necessary but I want to know what tools we have to work with.

I don't have a USBC WIFI stick or a suitable adapter at the moment, so the console is currently unable to connect to the network

  Quote  2. Are you running with one SD card or two (one for OS and one for ROMs) ?

EmuElec appears to be permanently installed in the console. I therefore have no access to the internal file system. The games are on the SD card (FAT 32).
To start Ark OS I have a 2nd SD card (one for OS and one for ROMs). Whereby I only have access to the boot and Rom partition with Windows.

  Quote  . Do you have a PC that can read the contents of the SD card and read/write to its file-system ?
Since I use windows this looks bad, the possibility would be that I can access the Linux partitions with the Raspberry PI.

  Quote  4. How much Linux do you know ?

The only thing I've been using Linux for a long time is the Raspberry Pi, so I would consider my level here to be “user”.Of course I have some experience with Mint or other Debian offshoots. In the terminal also on servers, but here always only worked according to default
