Multibooting is the easy part... The real trouble comes when you get E2 installed and have to live with the constant freezings and breakdowns :p

Do you have a serial cable plugged in ?

You don't need any cable other then usb cable.
Although in most case even ethernet will do.

But I am not sure at what stage you are now.
You got flash image working fine ?
Do you have multiboot working, can you boot to enigma2 on usb?

You should follow that thread to which you have already linked to and explain at which point you get stuck. You load multiboot file as if it was some new image you are flashing. Think PC editor should even do the trick over ethernet cable. It has an option to flash the box from hdd or without if file is not too big.

Hi if it is your 1rst Ipbox(like me)..try with PKT 7.5 image...all my pb are GONE:thum::D i´ve misted 10 days for nothing:mad:
**mine img is in flash
Use a USB max 2gb, format FAT, copy**** img inside usb_update.img,
insert, press power on front & power on from the back...booting appear, upgrade appear..so you can release...maybe little different with 9000(i have a 3000)...when upgrade, follow message on screen & when finish.....
Hope this help you...

Never mind the step 2.
Since you've got nlb installed you can just ftp the multiboot file to /tmp folder. But rename multiboot file to usb_update.img

Then access NLB web interface by etnering ipbox ip in your browser. Use update firmware option or whatever it is called, I haven't used ipbox in a while can't remember exact details.

But in any case it should flash the multiboot file in few seconds.

After that you should be able to choose multiboot options, just make sure you press the button on remote as soon as you see booting on front display.
You can test first by holding number 3 to boot to flash image.
Then you can go on to installing enigma2 on usb stick.

There is few different multiboot files, I know I ran into some that didn't work properly for me. So I've attached one I know works for sure.

I didn't think that was what I needed to see.
So how do I fix this??
Is there a singel App I can use to do all the work??

Does anyone know what button will get me into multiboot on a new Cuberevo HD twin??
Click to expand...


# 1 boot with CDKroot(NFS)
# 2 boot from USB memory stick, with internal HDD
# 3 original images as current flash memory
# 4 boot with NFS
# 5 boot from USB memory stick, but without internal HDD
# 6 boot from internal SATA HDD
# 7 boot from flash memory for another image
some multiboot configs have options 1,2, or 3 instead of the above

Hi I Have now managed to extract the multiboot on to the USB stick.

When my box has booted up I get a popup screen says "USB memory is detected" so my box is seeing the usb stick.

But still having problems getting in the the multiboot menu.

Does anyone know how to fix this.

You have to flash multiboot file same as if you were flashing a new image. Just having it on usb doesn't do anything.
And sorry about this post http://www.sat-universe.com/showpost.php?p=524434&postcount=9
I've just realized I never attached a file I said I did. So that's fixed now.

Anyway you have to flash multiboot file either from /tmp folder and webinterface, or by pc editor, or from usb stick or flash tools. So you've got options :)

After that you reboot your box and choose an option you need by pressing and holding the number on RC. But until you install enigma2 on usb stick you can only boot to flash image. That would be number 3

Thanks for the file

Ok just so I get this right

1. DGS Software i.e. NLB in tihs case gets flashed on the the box and is normally "name.img"

2. Multiboot file get flashed on to the box and has to be called "usb_image.img"

The above two files get flashed with any flashing tool.

3. Enigma files get extracted to youe usb memory stick after it has been formated in Linux.

please correct me if any of this is right.

Both 1 and 2 should be named usb_update.img to be flashed. Maybe with flash tools the file name is irrelevant, can't really remember only used it first time I got the box. It was inconvenient to move the box near the pc to flash it when there is easier methods.

Point 3 is correct. After you have multiboot running, you put usb stick in, boot up your flash image, format the usb stick, extract engima files on it, then boot e2 from stick.
