Ok lets go back to real topic.
After spending all day yesterday and today I can say that in the end my usb no matter what image I tried; playback freezing I came to conclusion usb pen no good.
I got my 3.5 ext hdd but funnily enough could not record on it with nemesis
Kept getting errors although disk was recognized in system
Trying it out now with dreamlite.......

And when did you last update online? You have clone, right?
I am afraid to use online update these days, since I have seen this line in changelog:

2 days ago pieterg dreambox-dvb-modules: 20110902 update

Dm800 Sim2.xx OpenPLi Online Update:

As OpenPLi has updated to Sept drivers & SSL 84 you need to convince opkg that SSL 84 has already been installed or it will upgrade to the non-clone-friendly SSL84 (No CA).

Edit the /usr/lib/opkg/status file to trick OpenPLi to think the latest SSL is already installed...

Find the section that looks like:
Package: dreambox-secondstage
Version: 82-r0
and edit it to look like:
Package: dreambox-secondstage
Version: 84-r0
If you already have the patched 20110902 drivers installed, you may do the same edit for the drivers, make it read as:
Package: dreambox-dvb-modules
Version: 2.6.18-7.4-dm800-20110902-r6.3

... or you can just let the online update install the new drivers & ftp the required single patched tuner driver into place @ /lib/modules/2.6.18-7.4-dm800/extra/bcm7401.ko after the update...

Worked fine for me & thanks gj for pointing out the edit...

EDIT: Just ran online update again w/ no problems...

Hey people !

This method of cokesux is working for online update of openpli.
Unfortunately we have no ssl84 and dvb-drivers 0902 (yet) but online update working this way and does not crash the box.
Thanks gj and cokesux for info !!! :thum:
