Hello

yesterday i bought a vu+ solo pro receiver. I think that is a clone
because the price was very cheap (100 euro)
It's a good receiver and fast but it has black hole image 2.0.7 by default

I want to install openpli4 on it but it's too difficult

On the receiver had a sticker which said to download images only from vuplushd.net because other images are too dangerous and they may destroy the receiver

The problem is that the receiver hasn't front usb port but only 2x usb ports on the back side .
I formatted a usb flash disk (fat32) and i inserted the 2 files i found on the above site
http://www.vuplushd.net/a/Software/VU__Images/cloud_ibox4/

in order to install openpli4.
In some forums i read that the files must be 3 .In my case the boot file for the image i want to install is missing.

Also it has a serial com port but i tried to operate with dreamup with no success.

I want to install a pli4 image with no timebomb but i don't know the way to do it

Dreamup does not work with the VU+ range.

You usually have a boot,kernel and root file on OpenPLI images. The boot file may not be needed and could brick the box if it was original.

My box is not damaged. It has now a black hole image.
The file that you send me contains only 2 files

I think that i need the following 3 files

Extract the downloaded file to a folder on our computer.
Inside the compressed archive will be present the following three files:

1.root_cfe_auto.jffs2
2.kernel_cfe_auto.bin
3.boot_cfe_auto.jffs2

But the boot_cfe_auto does not exists

I inserted now the flash disk with the files that you send me. This time the box rebooted and the last 3 minutes the operation led flashes continuously (blue coloro).Maybe the box this time try to upload the new image
