CoreELEC support : working !

I created a thread on the CoreELEC forum regarding the GS King X support and experience.
You can find it here : https://discourse.coreelec.org/t/s922x-h-bee-link-gs-king-x/11634.

Briefly, CoreELEC-9.2.3, the last stable version, works great on this box !
The HDD storage is available directly and everything is recognized and working out of the box.

The DTB file to use is currently the revA gtking one.

Did you switch your box to CoreELEC ? everything works like a charm with version 9.2.3 (I'm using firmware 904P0_wol).

How can you switch to CoreELEC ?
Download the 9.2.3 ‘ng’ image, flash it on a SD-card with Rufus (or any other software you are comfortable with). Then copy the DTB file with GT king revA name from the device_tree into the root folder of the SD-card afterwards ; simply rename it to dtb.img.
Then, with the box powered-off and the cable unplugged, put the SD-card, use a toothpick to push an internal switch (there is a small hole in the bottom of the chassis, next to the output ports). When it clicks, put the cable power and wait until the CoreELEC screen appears.
