Ok there is a FPGA update needed to run the later images, this can be done via an image in most case but your image wont boot.

Install Blackhole 2.0.6 and then run the update from there.

Then do this for the cfe

This update is needed to use the plugin "Wake on Lan" that will be available in the next Black Hole 2.0.5 version for Duo2.

Instructions:
1. Unzip the Duo2_CFE_V2.zip to USB stick.(cfe_cfe_auto.bin, cfe_cfe_auto.md5sum and cfe_cfe_auto.model should be at /vuplus/duo2 folder)
2. Insert USB stick into the USB port of Duo2 and turn the power on.
3. Press the front power button when Update message is shown.
5. It takes just a few seconds to update.
5. If Duo2 displays the message "Finished..reboot", remove the USB stick and restart the box.
5. To update image later, you should delete the all cfe_cfe_auto.* at /vuplus/duo2 in USB stick once CFE update is finished.

File attached

Im not with it at the moment as im at work but is that blackhole file a repairer and not a proper image? As the usb gave a blackhole logo image when it rebooted but did not install a working image .Cheers m8

Hi
CFe v2 is a Bootloader update to accept the loading of latest Images, Blackhole or others, you can load the latest images now.:thum:

Is it showing you the flash procedure on the front screen and asking you to press the button ?
