Build Emulationstation+kodi from lastest armbian

[psygnosis]

Hi, I always been an retrorangepi user for my Opi1. but the lastest retrorangepi is stuck at 4.1 (I try the 4.2 slim but it's too slim) and the 4.3 beta also if its named as full, lacks of kodi and many emulators.

so, my thought is.

What if I build my personal emulationstation + lastest kodi on top of lastest armbian?

Can I install armbian and then emustation and kodi? Do I have to install all emulator one by one? or I could use retroarch?

Can I setup armbian to boot emustation?

I think could be a good thing also for study
