Congratulations to all for your enthusiasm and helpful hints.
I am a beginner and just started playing with my new Dreambox 500HD. I am totally confused about the various components of the firmware and software and how they could be upgraded without causing any major problems. I ahve been looking at all the forums and pretty well everywhere but I have not found an idiot's guide that clearly explained what is going on in the box.
I have the following setup
Sim 2.1,
SSL 83-ro,
Peter Pan Neverland Image
Image version experimental 2011-04-05,
Enigma version ramiMaher-experimental,
dvb module 2.6.18-74-dm500hd-20110309-ro.
frontprocessor Vnone
tuner BCM4505
My questions are:
Many thanks

My questions are:
- is Enigma part of the image so that if I upgrade Peter Pan or install another image I also upgrade Enigma?
- If I find an image such as PL1 that says for instance Enigma 3.2 and my Enigma is 2 can I sitll use that image on my box?
- Can I upgrade from SSL83 to SSL84 without changing the image also.
- Is there any order (SSL, Image, driver, bootloader etc.) in which one should do the upgrade?
- I read about drivers also conflicting with imge versions. How do I find out which drivers I have and how do I go about to change/upgrade them?
- What is the EMU (emulator? of what?)
Many thanks
