Think like this, you have a car broken and you have to use PC stuff to put it rolling, that's not possible..., PC don't use breaker's etc etc Sorry
CU
Quick status:
Well I got the kernel out of the loader.bin with a windows romfs extractor - uuurg ;).
I'm working on this stuff because I got the box for free. So I have no problem with it from this point of view ;) It's a hobby - you know.
I loaded the kernel to the box via tftp but it don't want to interpret my nfs bootargs.
I have to fiddle around with the parameters or anyone has a good hint.
I tryed
fread tftp://<ip>/vmlinux.bin 0***020000
go 0***020000 console=ttyS0 root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=<ipserver_nfs>:/nfsroot ip=<ip_stb>:<ip_server_nfs>:<ip_g ateway>:<netmask>:<hostname> mem=108m
but this loads the normal stuff.
Is someone familiar with
setxenv a.linux_cmd
and
setxenv y.start
You can find not only the answers of your questions but more interesting things directly on the sigma do***entation -> Linux Topic -> Yamon Quick Help (do***entation are on the zip archive).

Please, somebody make another fake video on youtube.
Too many problems seems to occure to run enigma2 on azbug.Some people seems to try but i dont know if it will be ever possible to achieve it.And if they will.... how stable it will be?
We have official firmware not stable at all... how enigma2 will be stable?
we have xbmc running on popcorn which has a similar processor.but this also is not possible on azbug due to known limitations.
Although this thread remains one of my favourites.Lot of joy to read everyones opinion :)
:respect-048:
not sure if it would be of any help, but i found this on the web
YAMON> load -b tftp://<ip_addresse_tftp>/lzma.bin 0x91400000; go 0x91400000

azbox sold on my fleabay, and vu+ duo ordered and received
time to move on :) best of luck to the robin hoods :)
AZbug = other Qbox
Enigma2 for AZ it' s FAKE
the real problem is close source ( not opensource )
result other STB with no support .
my opinion
I wish you Good Luck, and hope to find you in the future on VU+ forums.Quote:

If I take the hints from the Italien page I am able to boot from usb stick.
There is also written some scripts to get access to the box with a ntp hack and there are also binaries for manipulating the xenv variables out of the shell. Not much missing now.
First I set
setxenv y.ipaddr 192.168.1.2
setxenv y.gateway 192.168.1.1
setxenv y.bootserver 192.168.1.3
setxenv netmask 255.255.255.0
and I do a
net init
then
fread tftp://192.168.1.3/lzma.bin 0***020000
And set
setxenv a.linux_cmd "console=ttyS0 root=/dev/sda2 rw rootdelay=5 mem=108m"
Second partition on the first usb stick.
On the Stick there is a copy of a cramfs
go 0***020000
and the box is booting.
Next I try to use the internal disk and some newer kernel (maybe also one with nfs support).
Interesting reading. haven't got a clue what you are talking about, but it's good reading. :-)
I may even learn something one day.
Does this mean you are getting somewhere with booting E2, should I hold off flogging my box lol
Keep at it, lets hope you get somewhere with it
As I worte some time ago - we try first to get VDR or Neurino running. If E2 will be possible is out of my knowledge. But if you have a look at the "sh4 duckbox project" the also got all three running. But I also told that this 'project' could end in an other Linuxsystem on the AZBox.
I now managed to boot from HDD and USB. NFS needs some more work.
These are the first steps to test new image software releases without bringing the box to dead. The same was done with the ufs910.
We just started...
For me Neutrino would be awesome much better than E2, continue your efforts I'll hold on to my box for now.
@4@@@@
It's not 0x91400000. Use 90020000.
off topic sorry!Quote:

just asking, dunno why.
@The_ripper - thanx - just corrected.
What is the reason - it worked also with the other address?
What are you talking about ?Quote:

Actually the SH4 Duckbox project is the only HD STB and multimedia platform that is fully open sourced (only notable exception are some drivers for the IPBox , but this will be fixed in the future) and that can be compiled by everybody with a Linux operating system and some free tools.
Actually there are 4 systems that can be compiled, E1 HD, E2, Neutrino HD and VDR.
Not even the market leader Dreambox comes close to this platform that becomes the standard of an ever growing community.
I have read in a other Forum that in the middle of June Opensat/Impexsat will release a complete new FW, with a complete other Design and so on.
Maybe they have finnished the beginning E2 Tryouts?
Has anyboddy else read this?
