[QUOTE="BGonaSTICK, post: 55830, member: 176912"] Unless you hit any odd problems, it should be fairly plain sailing for an experienced engineer. The standard image is pre-loaded, and you don't need any computer connection to get a basic system up and running. From what I remember (if it comes with OS V1.05 as mine did) it's not amazingly logical, but you just set up language options, motor/diseqc options (Latitude and Longitude - so get these ready...) and satellite settings. I think it pretty much forces you to scan at least one satellite to start with, so maybe Astra 1 or Hotbird would be a good place to start. Valid (but slightly out of date) transponder lists are present straight out of the box. Once you've played with it for a few days, I would definitely get the official 1.08 image onto it, if not one of the 'aftermarket' images. Far superior, complete and stable if you ask me. Best done with a CAT5 patch or crossover cable and the 'root.cramfs' method if you have a HDD. Search on Google. Don't forget your UK power lead! [/QUOTE]
