[QUOTE="td03-5, post: 80267, member: 188069"] Hi Gameboy, Final thought for tonight. Flash a standard unhacked DMM108.1 (the only one on the DMM official site) or a 108.2-1 public beta (if you can find one, I did but cannot remember where - all my postings elsewhere lost!). Enter all your satellite settings and let it do a full scan. (Are there any programs for the Mac, like DreamBoxEdit which allow settings to be down/up loaded?). Now it's time for the long-winded Linux stuff! (That's assuming you can start a terminal session from Mac to DB?). Assuming a telnet type session has been established with the Dreambox then at the Linux prompt type: mkfs.ext3 /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc - and press Return. This should format the USB stick and various cluster information etc will be displayed. It will take a while but will return to the prompt when complete. Next to mount the USB type: mount /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/lun0/disc /var/mnt/usb - and press Return. It should mount almost instantly with no error message and just return to the Linux prompt. Assuming all seemed to go OK then to check it type: cd /var/mnt/usb Return ls Return (thats LS) Should display: lost+found If so, all seems OK so go ahead with DreamFlash installation as above. 73 & good luck.
