Did you have any other version of E2 on your HDD before you unpacked it?

If so that could be your problem try formating your hdd and starting from scratch.....

if i unmount it i get no such file or directory,this is the way i did it after you told me,worked on all other images


cd /mnt/usb
mkdir bro1
mount -t ext2 /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb/bro1

this created a bro1 directory.it could be any name you use when tyrping the command mkdir
when done


ftp the image to /mnt/usb/bro1 with your favourite ftp program
then when done in putty

type command "cd /mnt/usb/bro1" to enter in folder where is tar.gz file of enigma
18. to check it type "ls -aln" and see , if all is OK, if yes, we will see our file tar.gz
19. type "tar xzvf PKT_31.tar.gz


then it begins unpacking

after unpack in putty type

cd /
umount /dev/sda1

I'm a newbie so,..........

These commands I'm using after reading and I have just added a few things at the end.
You just dont need to do anything else than type the commands in telnet.(don't forget the free space before a /)

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
1. Boot your DGS image, wait to full boot.
2. Insert your USB stick
3. Telnet to your box, execute mount
4. In the list check - if the /dev/sdb1 is mounted (if is FAT probably is mounted to /mnt/usb/usb0)
5. umount it - umount /mnt/usb/usb0
6. now execute fdisk /dev/sdb (not sdb1)
7. on the prompt press p - to see current partition table
8. press d - to delete partitions, if it is only one proceed, if not - press d again and delete all partitons
9. press p again - there will be no partitons now
10. Press n - to create new partition
11. select p - primary
12. select 1
13. press enter, enter
14. press w to write changes & exit
15. You have just created linux partition on your usb stick
16. Now format this partition - mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdb1
17. mount formatted partition again - mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb/usb0
18. Now ftp e2 tar.gz to /mnt/usb/usb0
19. execute cd /mnt/usb/usb0
20. execute tar -zxvf e2image.tar.gz, wait few minutes to decompress all. (wait for prompt)
21. after decompress type, sync


to unmount just

cd /
umount /dev/sdb1
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Hope this will help you,because it helped me always unpack.Wait a little,15-30 sec, after sync.
