Need help with installing E2 on internal hdd.

Image in flash: SifTeam-0.6.7-r13736
Image on USB stick: AAF MediaCenter SpringV1 fix IP-Box 9000
HDD: 1 partition 500GB ext2

I was trying with:
ftp e2.tar.gz to /media
cd /media
tar xvzf "image"
sync
sync
pressing the number 6 key on remote control " multiboot 6 "
but nothing :(

From flash image I have to manual mount /dev/sda1 /media (hdd fail) and then ftp...
From USB image ftp to /media/autofs/sda1/ (swap is on sdb1).

Regards

Here is telnet output about partitions:

IPBox9000HD:~# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 1 60801 488384001 83 Linux

Disk /dev/sdb: 4009 MB, 4009754624 bytes

IPBox9000HD:~#

Can I use Enigma Setup. v 1.5.12 with dgs image in flash or only with enigma image? I can only connect enigma setup with E2 image.

you can have dgs in flash also. to setup install e2 image to hdd

but you need to add your Prompt line! like # is a unversal line!
Try it if it wont work then login with telnet and look at your prompt! and add it to enigma setup.
once you get it working you will se the output like!

connect 192.168.1.10..
Disk /dev/sda: 1000.2 GB, 1000204886016 bytes
Disk /dev/sdb: 8053 MB, 8053063680 bytes.
.
cpu family : sh4
cpu type : STb710x
bogomips : 264.60
sh4_clk : 265.50MHz

With looking at your post!
your setup looks ok it could be your multiboot config thats ignoring enigma2!
use the enigma setup tool and install the add.mboot.tar.gz manualy and chmod the files 755! then on the multiboot menu you can select your settings you want...
On dgs images you must install the add.mboot thirst just extract the file and drag them to /var easy to do and you are set to use the enigma setup to force your uboot settings whats good about the enigma program it also Locks your uboot so it wont reset itsellf back to Defaults! the way some uboot images do!!!!

Weird E2 Problem on CubeRevo

Hi,

Has anyone seen this before?

Trying to install E2 on CubeRevo (either USB or HDD), everything goes OK, until trying to boot new image, then the following happens...

First Boot.. Loads Image, no change on VFD or Screen, serial console does not output anything after 'Starting Kernel....' message. Disk continues to be accessed for about 5 mins, doesn't go any further.

Second Boot.. Loads Image, no change on Screen, VFD changes from BOOTING to corrupt characters, serial console does not output anything after 'Starting Kernel....' message. Disk continues to be accessed for about 2 mins, doesn't go any further.

Third Boot.. Loads Image, no change on Screen, VFD eventually changes to 'Tideglo', serial console outputs normal startup type info, with some errors, and appears to stop after 'init embx'.

Left it like this for upto 30 mins (on each boot), and subsequent boots do the same as the Third Boot.

This is my first time trying E2 (and also booting from the HDD/USB), and I have tried a few different images shown on this board.

I have also tried downloading 'Enigma Setup', and have the same results.

Any Ideas?

Cheers

Dave

Could you be specific about your box/image.

Could be plenty of causes. Not enough memory, not an sh4 (risc) compiled binary etc.
