All I did was write the image to USB instead of SD, connect to a Linux machine so I could edit the below files in a text editor (I’m using a Pi3 A+ so I don’t have a spare USB to connect a keyboard to when it’s running). It wasn’t running in AP mode properly (Would start for a moment then disappear) and without being able to connect to it to investigate due to 1 USB port, I disabled AP mode. I’m assuming it’s related to rc.local and/or the hard coded /dev addresses as the same image booted fine from SD.

Added to the end of /opt/max2play/wpa_supplicant.conf
network={
ssid=“SSID Name“
psk=“1234567890″
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}

In /opt/max2play/options.conf
Changed
auto_accesspoint_mode=0 (from 1)
Added
autoreconnect_wifi=1

In /etc/network/interfaces
Uncommented bottom 5 lines

I stuck the USB in the Pi, it rebooted and gave an error when resizing due to the hardcoded devices. I resized the partition manually via SSH, rebooted and it was good to go.
