You need to make an introduction man

There should be an option to factory reset the image within the menu, or reflash a different image from here --> DM500 & Clone Images ..
If you don`t have FTP access then you will have to flash an image with DreamUP and a RS232 Null Modem Cable..
If you can factory reset the image and gain FTP access then you can flash the image with Dreambox Control Center using the Telnet method..
To flash an image using Telnet
This method will only work with a .img image file.
[align=left] cd /tmp && eraseall /dev/mtd/3 && cp backup.img /dev/mtd/3 && reboot
[/align]Or flash an image with FlashWizard..
Install and run TuxBox Commander plugin
- Change directory to edit /var/etc/passwd (type 4: "Edit")
- Remove the encrypted password.
In the file /etc/passwd is the line:
root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/sh
or something as
root:EIfidfjeSAEFKEOlasdf5ewr3rWEW:0:0:root:/root:/bin/sh
The password field is the x or the encrypted string
EIfidfjeSAEFKEOlasdf5ewr3rWEW
Delete the x or the whole string. The line now is:
root::0:0:root:/root:/bin/sh
- Save the file and exit
hi
just a thought
make a back up of your image with dream up
then open your image on pc with ViewVar-dm500-(for windows) program
(image must be named backup.img)
then extract the files needed from ie Var/Bin and Var/Etc
hope this may help
