  • Anyone get any idea hot to run this from a memory or if it's possible ...Polish is nearly as hard as my native Irish which I still haven't learned ..Do I do it during boot time or what ..Have nebula zero on at the minuet and just fancy a chance . I did the multiboot upgrade so I could try some more Roms but afraid to try anything it case it all blows up it's a great little box if I could only read Polish ....So like I said How to update this image to run from harddisk please and thank you .
    Confused Paddy :(

    This can be done from within the PKT Blue Panel. I used image Nebula Zero v2.
    1st make a full backup image - PKT Blue Panel > System > Backup Manager > enable backup of whole image. -Takes around 30 minutes and FTP to your computer.
    Use the Disk Manager (inside Install Manager) to re partition your HDD - WARNING all data on sda (HDD) will be lost.
    Make 2 partitions.I made sda1 1GB and sda2 give the rest of the free space.
    Mount sda2 as HDD in Mount Center.
    FTP your full backup to media/hdd/ - not in the backup folder.
    From Install Manager choose sda1 and your full backup then press red to install - this process takes just a few minutes.
    Boot from HDD1 in b4u multiboot.
    Boot starts quicker than from USB and it runs stable for me.


    If you have a USB stick then you can partition and write images in the same way. When choosing from b4u in multiboot USH1 is sdb1 USH2 is sdb2

  • Thanks for the great info guys . For some reason I couldn't get the full backup to work after installing nebula3 but did manage to use your method with a couple of the images posted by nano :-) At the moment I have the box running on the Hyperion image from the PKTeam website .Amzingly enough it's just on a 4gb micro sd card from an old Blackberry I had lying around stuck in a pound shop adaptor .Would recommecnd Hyperion even running from a 4Gb key ..really fast and lots of plugins .All that's left for me to do is to get the EPG running correctly ..still havn't completely figured out crossepg yet but I'm working on it ..Any input appreciated from the Gurus :-)

  • I think you have to set it up somewhere in the Blue panel mate. Never had that problem with mine, its always shown up when i installed it.

  • Nano, I got a 5800sx and no matter what image I try the screen flickers on/off etc. is there a possibility I have a faulty box? I have even reflowed the tuner board, opened up to see if there was anything obvious, and the replaced caps had bad solder joints, but still same after reflow. (The glitchimg seems to be the output itself hdmi as it does it on loading screens also)


    Would try scart, but even after switching to scart etc in settings it's a no go

  • I have no idea without seeing the box first. Have you tried changing the HDMI lead. It may be something stupid, you never know.


    It may also be worth trying it on another TV if possible. If the problem still exists after ruling these out then i would say the box is faulty.
