Gemini 4.2 backup image

Thank you

Quote from mihaip

Is not so simple ! The easy way is to start installing GPT Multiboot

from OpenATV as base image ! But ... is no way back ! if you don't

like for some reason !

- you must have installed OpenATV 7.6

- first of all ... you must verify what version of bootloader you have !

- it must not be less than BL104

- if is so ... you must make some steps from Telnet

- you can run a simple migration script by Captain

- download and unpack this script :

https://mega.nz/file/zhs0VC5R#…wnljg0qSiFD9rQNUMTFgWq2PM

- using a FTP client , transfer it to : /usr/script and give attributes 755

- you will run it from Menu

Then reboot Dream into Recovery Mode !

- after Reboot ypu have alreafy Multiboot active with BL112F

- select to use Slot 0 ( the first one ) and reinstall OpenATV 7.6 to it

- from now on ... you will instal from Software Management - Flash Online

images archives (.zip) as downloaded from OpenATV or other sources !

You must try to use a newer image ! 7.6 is recommended !

I'm actually on 7.6 openatv, not sure why i get this error

"- it must not be less than BL104"

Cannot be updated if BL is less then 104 !

I had the same problem with Dream One Combo ... witch has from factory BL103 !

At the time I've manage to change the BL to 104 , but the operation was not perfectly

"clean" ! Then all was easy ... Multiboot was installed without any problem !

What "clean" means ? after the upgrade from BL103 to BL104 the Ethernet controler

become unpredictible ! I was forced to use only Wi-Fi ! I'm not sure that is a wrong

setup of Eth at Boot or a hardware fault !

The BL was updated as a rule , updating factory image at the first boot ! but now

there is no Original Dreambox server , only a substitute ! I dont know if this can

support the BL Upgrade ! Please post a capture on BL Web Interface ...

The actual working server is : Dreambox Firmware Updates

In theory you must load a Dreambox Rescue Image ! but I cannot be sure

that this will work in the absence of original Dreambox support server !

If this does not work ... could be catastrophic ! Rescue image restore the

Android Bootloader ... I'm not sure if this is the BL104 we need !

Hi, my BL screen showing exactly same as the attached picture,

also, I have noticed that the device with openatv 7.6 is accepting normally the addons and plugins (*.ipk) as if it's just noraml OE 2.0 devices, everythig seems to be to working normally, then I reflash Gimini AIO and it's also working , I'm not sure if this normal that dreambox one will all accept both OE 2.0 and 2.6 images or because of the BL version, the only issue I have noticed that I can not restore the openatv backup image again to the device, I have to flash fresh openatv image again and re-do all the setting, addons, plugins..etc from scratch.

anyway, if there is a safe way to update the BL then I'll do it, if not then I will just keep openatv 7.6 image as it seems enough for me at this time.

Edit: I manage to update FP to 1.15 with AIO image, then I flash openatv fresh image, follow the steps on opneatv site to update BL and now I have BL 106

thanks.

thanks mihaip

finialy I manage to have the multiboot on my dreamone, BL 106, but it's showing 3 slots only, is that normal for the internal memory to have only 3 slots? is there any way to increase the slots or I need sdcard if want more slots.

Also, is there anyway to install dreamos images backups via openatv online flash?

thanks

Quote from mihaip

Ypu must upgrade now the BL106 to BL112 !

At the time were 3 or 4 slots ... till was decided to 4 !

as is today ! Try to update with Captain procedure !

Code

update-rescue -v

Yes ! you can install my backups for Gemini and Merlin !

- put images on a FAT32 stick in /install

- install them from Software Management - Flas Online - Downloaded Images !

I got this error ;

curl: (6) Could not resolve host: source.mynonpublic.com

Dear Captain please advise if any solutions to update BL 106 dream one to the latest BL

thx

Quote from mihaip

By default OpenATV updates BL106 to BL 112F !

You can install temporarely OpenATV 7.5 into a free slot

and try the same in that environment !

I just install opeanatv 7.5 and run (update-rescue -v) there was no error, after it completed the device not rebooted, I go manually to rescovery mode and the bootloader still 106

[H[Jroot@dreamone:~# 
update-rescue -v

The best thing to do for Dreambox One and Two, when you want GPT partitioning to load multiple images, is to flash an AIO image, insert the GUTEMINE feeds, and use them to load the 124 rescue loader, which allows for up to five flash partitions. However, if you've already had a repair using other methods, you need to know exactly what you're doing. You risk turning your Dreambox into a paperweight.

I believe his feed (Gutemine) is not active any more to help with this issue... isn't it?

Quote from mihaip

At the time ... I've done all BL upgrades starting from

a Gemini 4.2 AIO image using @Gutemine support !

Code

echo "deb [trusted=yes] https://repo.fury.io/aio/ ./" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/aio.list
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install rescue-image

I dont know if today is working ! the scret is into "rescue-image" !

If you have a correct one ... will work ! but I cannot say I know

all the detalis ! Anyway ... if first step works , will be ok !

Captain done also a version BL112 upgrade script ! but I can

trace it to be sure !!!

Code

wget -O /tmp/dream-gpt.sh "http://source.mynonpublic.com/dream-gpt.sh" && chmod 777 /tmp/dream-gpt.sh && /tmp/dream-gpt.sh

You can try this starting from OpenATV 7.5 !
