Or, judging by the toys behind the boxes, the kid's throat :)

Its probably some where I have just flung in, I had what turned out to be the false memory of putting in with the Xtrend box as the spare HDD cradle that came with the Mutant is in there still bagged up with other wee odds & sods.

Well I never did find either the USB stick nor the OTG cable, so no OpenATV for the Alien 2.

Been out of E2 for at least 2 years, used to run Black Hole many years ago, then switched to OpenPLI, then ran OpenVix for a few years, might give OpenATV a go. What do you think of it and did you find a USB stick?

It was mate, it's a 16 Gig "Maplin" stick my dad gave me up with a "Banned" Disney movie that my GF was fond of when she was young un. The USB stick I am looking for is a Blue TDK number that I have always used for flashing boxes as it's only 4 Gig, FAT 32 formatted & fast speed, where ever it is the USB OTG cable is with it no doubt. This is an Android only house, no Windows machines, I use my phone to download, unzip, transfer onto stick and then flash my receivers. I also use AndFTP to FTP into my receivers.

It was a joke, as we were talking about Schrödinger's cat.

I have a few 4GB sticks for flashing, bigger ones just won't work with certain devices. And they are hard to find these days!

Yeah it's impossible (Almost!) to buy "tiny" sized sticks these days, While we're on the subject I noticed the Maplin one is made by Samsung.
