Hi Folks,
Not sure if this has been mentioned on this forum yet but as I've just spent 2 days adding and deleting images and re-formatting my USB stick, thought I would say it anyway.
When using FlashWizard 5.0 and 1.09 images in multiboot be sure to use the:
1.09 beta CVS
image in Dreambox internal flash memory.
If instead you use the:
1.09 beta
image, then FW5.0 fails to correctly register the current running image.
The red arrow in FW5.0 shows that the flash image is in use when you know that it is one of your multiboot images running!
Worse, when you try to ftp files to the image, they go to the flash image, while things are in this mixed up state. You can see from your ftp package that it is not the correct image as there is no 'scce' or 'bin' etc folders.
Also anyone ftping addons to /tmp would find they were not recognised as they were in the flash image /tmp and not the required multiboot image /tmp.
So, to cure these problems, make sure you use 1.09 beta CVS.
Hope this helps to save some frustration!
