@The_Ripper
I presume that was a really stupid thing to ask!

i just tried the new image its a long way from making me happy just yet and there should be a tutorial as to how to install a cam+config file manualy??but keep up the good work im sure you guys will have the kinks worked out by christmas!!the sound is a major problem ive noticed.

[Smudger]

Does this mean that I need to repair or replace the kernel or repair or replace the DOM?

Thanks for your help
Stephen !

Have a search around I've seen somwhere guy's reformat DOM on IDE cable with PC. more then likely uisng ubuntu.

Or maybe use Ext2Fsd then no need to use Ubuntu
I use it with win 7 as long as you "Run as Admin" Great for tranfering to HDD through pc direct.

I am sure that I saw something about this yesterday. Trying to find it now.

I have just installed Ext2Fsd and once I've read up on what I need to do I'll maybe use that if it means that I don't have to install and get familiar with Ubuntu.

This is a really steep learning curve for me. I have been constantly searching, reading and re-reading posts in most of my spare time for the last 2 weeks. Still, what good is a hobby if it does not stay interesting and challenging! I really appreciate the help that everyone here has given me so far.

Thanks
Stephen

I'll look around to see if I can find what I read.

If you do a goggle search using the words 'AZBox Elite IDE recording', there is an excellent article on how to add IDE drives to an Elite.
It replaces the DOM with one drive and sets up a second drive as a PVR device.

Have a search of this thread.

I know internal is not is not working yet but I sure I read some solution for external reader.

Hi Smudger,

yes I have read the thread but I haven't found a working solution. The problem is as described... no smargo or phoenix drivers found.

I also do not know where the kernel-log is??? Neigher /var/log nor /tmp or dmesg contains usefull information - so I am blind

If anybody has a working solution I would appreciate a reference :respect-061:

Thanks in advance

From DS 3.0 image relaese do***ent I found:
I don't know if this is usefull, because I have no usb readers, so the whole topic is not familiar to me.

- Added Kernel Modules Manager
+ USB Mouse/Joystick/Keyboard
+ SCSI Generic
+ WLAN
+ USB cardreader ( PL2303 and FTDI )
+ ISOFS
+ SMB/CIFS
+ CDFS
+ UDF
+ VFAT
+ NTFS
+ SMBFS
+ HFS

Now ,this thread is so quiet,i hope we will get new firmware in next few days.

Why ?
When there is not much new yet it's useless to make new version everytime.
Let the team take there time and when there is good progress to test then we'll see it soon enough.

Hmmm - I'm confused now.

I use 1.0.30 Enigma2 experimental Image. What is a DS 3.0 Image????

OK, I've found it!
Just download and try out...

It's here, so why link to another forum? :- https://www.satpimps.co.uk/showthread.php?t=142195

It's best you delete that live link as the mods don't like links to other satellite forums.

[kooleracer]

would be a nice feature on the azbox-enigma.eu site to place percentage bar, so we can see how far they are with the new release. This will avoid many useless questions.

Hope to see this soon.

Sorry... haven't seen it.

I've just installed DS3. Looks good... but... same problem with Smargo as described above.

If I activate the FTDI-module in the kernel-module-manager nothing happens.
If have neighter a ftdi-driver (lsmod) nor a usb-device to connect. If I plug in the smargo nothing happens. I see also no kernel-logs...

It's a pitty because I look pay-tv only.

Any other ideas?

Plugin the smargo then check with "dmesg" if it is recognized.
And maybe
cat /proc/tty/driver/usbserial

should give something like

0: module:ftdi_sio name:"FTDI USB Serial Device" vendor:0403 product:6001 num_ports:1 port:1 .....

Then you have to load usbserial.ko with insmod and then the ftdi_driver.ko.

If this will not load you also missed usbcore. Or try to use modprobe if available.

Smargo is working with the original software so there is no reason to not work with E2.

dmesg shows me nothing if I plug in smargo!

/proc/tty/driver/usbserial does not exist!

usbserial.ko does not exist (have made a search with "find / -name usbserial* -print")

I suppose where is simply no driver in the kernel. Maybe I need to re-install the driver? But where do I get these kernel-modules?

Following suggestions from Smudger and Far451 I followed a guide to replacing the DOM with an IDE HDD.

I removed the DOM and attached one IDE HDD to my Premium and powered it from my PC. The original guide described how to replace the DOM and run the firmware from a master HDD and record onto a slave HDD but I only connected one HDD.

After booting I got the Upgrade screen and selected 4. Format application area. A message indicated that the formatting was completed.

ON rebooting I again got the Upgrade screen. When I selected 1. USB I have the same problem I had with the old DOM yesterday - it asks me to 'Please insert USB storage' even though a freshly formatted USB drive with the firmware patch.bin file is in the USB port. I have tried several USB drives - that have all worked previously in the box - and I have tried both ports. I have also tried 2 different HDD units.

From what I have described, is there anything obvious that I have not done or if you have any suggestions about what I could try next, please let me know.

Thanks
Stephen
