Just got Enigma 2 running on my box so i thought i'd type up the steps, this is for windows users but linux users just need to use putty instead of hyperterminal


1)Telnet into box by running the command prompt in windows xp or in vista typing cmd at the search search and right clicking cmd then running as administrator
replace the xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with your sat boxes ip address

telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

2)login using username root and password relook (if relook doesn't work try ipbox or leave it blank.)


3)Unmount the usb, type:

umount /mnt/usb

4)Now format it, type:

mkfs /dev/sda1 -t ext2

5)reboot the box and then ftp into it and copy over enigma2_cuberevo.tar.gz to mnt/usb

6)Telnet back into the box and login, then type:

cd mnt/usb

tar xzf enigma2_cuberevo.tar.gz

7)Wait untill its finished then type

mv ./release/* .

8)Thats your usb stick made now onto the enviroment settings. Edit the ip addresses in the next 4 commands,(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) you need your IPBoxes, then Your PC's and finally your routers

setenv menu_1 'setenv ipaddr xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;setenv serverip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;setenv gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;setenv netmask 255.255.255.0;setenv bootargs "console=ttyAS1,115200 panic=3 bigphysarea=10240 root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=/root/Desktop/root rw rootpath=/root/Desktop/root ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gateway:$netmask mem=128m coprocessor_mem=4m@0x10000000,4m@0x10400000 init=/bin/devinit";setenv bootcmd "nfs a5ff0000 192.168.1.6:/root/Desktop/root/boot/uImage;bootm a5ff0000";saveenv;boot'

setenv menu_2 'setenv ipaddr xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;setenv serverip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;setenv gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;setenv netmask 255.255.255.0;setenv bootusb "run bootargsusb;usb reset;ext2load usb 0:1 a5ff0000 boot/uImage;bootm a5ff0000";setenv bootargsusb "setenv bootargs console=ttyAS1,115200 panic=3 bigphysarea=10240 root=/dev/sda1 rw rootdelay=10 init=/bin/devinit ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gateway:$netmask mem=128m coprocessor_mem=4m@0x10000000,4m@0x10400000";setenv bootcmd "run bootusb";saveenv;boot'

setenv menu_3 'setenv ipaddr xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;setenv serverip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;setenv gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;setenv netmask 255.255.255.0;setenv bootusb "run bootargsusb;usb reset;ext2load usb 0:1 a5ff0000 boot/uImage;bootm a5ff0000";setenv bootargsusb "setenv bootargs console=ttyAS1,115200 panic=3 bigphysarea=10240 root=/dev/sdb1 rw rootdelay=10 init=/bin/devinit ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gateway:$netmask mem=128m coprocessor_mem=4m@0x10000000,4m@0x10400000";setenv bootcmd "run bootusb";saveenv;boot'

setenv menu_4 'setenv ipaddr xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;setenv serverip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;setenv gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;setenv netmask 255.255.255.0;setenv bootargs "console=ttyAS1,115200 panic=3 root=/dev/mtdblock3 bigphysarea=1500 ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gateway:$netmask quiet";setenv bootcmd "bootm a0060000";saveenv;boot'


9)Now connect the ipbox to your pc via serial lead. Open hyperterminal in windows, make a new connection + name it IPBOX then choose your com port and set the speed as 115200

10)reboot your IPbox then quickly in the hyperterminal window, hold ctrl and keep tapping z untill u see cuberevo> at the prompt

11)Copy all 4 of your edited enviroment lines into hyperterminal pressing return after each one

12)when you've done all 4 then type the save command below and press enter. It should say saving to flash.

saveenv

13)Reboot the box a final time and hold either 2,3 or 4 on boot for 5 seconds

2 will boot it if you have no hard drive, 3 is if you have a harddrive, and 4 boots into the old non enigma firmware.

14) let the box boot. It will take ages but when u finally see the enigma screen up you know you've done it

15)Its in italian as the default language, to set it to yours do this:
Press menu
choose Configurazione
then choose Sistema
Finally choose Lingua and select your Flag. Exit after that then press menu again to setup the box up in your language.

next time you boot it will go straight into enigma as long as the usb pen drive is plugged. If you want to go back to the old system just hold 4 in for 5 seconds on boot.

Hope this helps someone, Its been put together from the original install notes but it should be a bit easier to follow

Just to add by default, Vista doesn’t install the Telnet client. The client is for text-based communication with remote systems. You can install it by following these steps:


1. Click Start then select Control Panel.

2. Select Programs and Features.

3. Select Turn Windows features on or off.

4. Select the Telnet Client option.

5. Click OK.

6. A dialog box will appear to confirm installation. The telnet command should now be available.

4)Now format it, type:

mkfs /dev/sda1 -t ext2
Click to expand...

Shouldn't that be /dev/sdb1 ? or I guess it depends whether you have a HDD or not?

And on my box, the USB stick is at: /mnt/usb/usb0

Ah, sorry. I'm still getting to grips with this thing myself. So I guess it all mounts differently, seems /media is your usb stick - I don't know if it gets partitioned or what... good luck - sorry I've been singularly useless (again).
