Ok, I tried that, and selected to install them to the SSD I've installed, but I get warnings about Read-Only filesystem and after that, loads of warnings when extracting png-files saying "Failed to create dir '/media/hdd/picon'". Do I have to change some mounting settings?

This has actually blocked the whole TV-box while still failing to create directories for like a half hour now. It seems I can't abort either. Would it be ok to force a reboot of the box from telnet when something like this happens, or might I break something if I do?

Did you format your SSD inside the box or do you format it on PC (Windows).
If you plan to a permanent SSD into your box, format it from the Duo2K to have its filesystem in ext4.
If the box is stuck and you can telnet you can type reboot now
Otherwise switch it off wait (for the capacitor to discharge) and on again.

After a couple of hours, it finished the failing picon install operation. After that, the box seems back to normal.
I probably formatted the SSD from inside the box. Either way, it is ext4 according to mount. Does anyone know what could be the reason for the picon install to get the read-only-problems?

Check the logs (on the commandline or on the box, menu-info-about-yellow button), in general linux only mounts a device readonly out of self preservation, if serious issues with the device are detected.
