dFlash the direct flash & Backup Plugin

Instructions for dFlash as of March 27, 2011

Hi!

I must first break a little discussion of ethics from the fence before I post to you depending on the outcome of the discussion the plugin.

Who is still on the flash with the d-box reminds maybe a little sad how simple it was back then.

While playing a simple box new image to / tmp FTPen, flashing in menu choose Image will be flashed box will reboot and new image is on it.

Actually, that goes also to the Dreambox. LowFat or the beta from the sofa in the flash Barry Allen makes so already, only then is it just not boot from flash but makes only about what the NFI also makes the Flash plug-in DMM but it requires a separate USB stick to boot.

I would not be good mine if I had not tested whether the well would go with the current Flash Image ;-)

Once the answer is yes, there is this thread.

The d-Flash plugin actually what makes it quite simple:

It leaves the box in the console mode (init 1) so that virtually nothing is running the Flash WHILE the flash could change.

Then, the root filesystem read only re-mount (yes that is in the console mode) and the normal binary writenfi of DMM to use to flash the nfi file to / tmp.

Then immediately reboot the box and starts with the new image as if you have the Flash plugin from NFI DMM and a USB stick flashed the box again.

After the won is definitely NOT like DMM has provided this and neither I would still DMM take any responsibility if it goes wrong, I think it makes even sense the first time of asking in the round whether make appropriate disclaimer is something public is so it each DAC can also use (and then probably will - laziness always wins).

I am personally of the opinion that similar to the sofa and LowFat bottles of BA (which yes, for similar reasons, namely the abuse of writenfi binaries, will be accessible only BETA) we can do well.

I believe that nothing really happen and what is a Mullmodemkabel DreamUP and possibly flashing with Recover bad sectors could not be repaired again.

But of course I can also totally wrong!

Well then discussed once beautiful and brave testers can of course also report

PS: The guys on the VU + support something even officially

EDIT: Tested on 8000/800/800SE/500HD/7025
At the 7025 is currently only backing up, not the flashing with dFlash
And ONLY be on the 500HD it without a local swapfile on a secure network mounts.

EDIT: has ip.der.dream.box / dflash the plugin now also a web interface for flashing and backing up from PC
