Having a play around with the AAF Recovery Tool v3.1.
I'd like to back-up and have a look at my bootargs. I've been following the guide but when I go onto the Maxi bootdesc Defaults tab I find the Save bootargs box greyed out.
Also, on the Reseller-id tab, I see the id for the Icecrypt but again it is all greyed out so no facility for changing.
Any help please ?
yeah mate i had the same, and then gave up on it....
official E2 coming soon, just wait a few more days.
There's as much chance of an official E2 for this box as there is for the AZbug.
There is already an E2 image but it is NOT official.

If I understand it correctly, you have to load the maxi bootloader first, then set the bootargs for that. Similarly with the reseller ID - after flashing the new loader you should be able to do it.
I'm was going to have a go this evening but am now watching footy - so will try later (tomorrow?) and will report back - hopefully with a working box and not a brick :-)
I changed the reseller id to atevio simply because that is what aaf had said the recovery tool was written for .After saving the bootargs I changed it back to Icecrypt .Cant remember the option being greyed out though at anytime .
I think the answer is that the Maxi U-boot has to be installed first and then both the Save bootargs and the Reseller-id tabs will then be enabled. I might give it a go tomorrow.
That's how I understand it too. I think the way to go is E2 in flash, so you'll need Maxiboot installer v0.3 too.
