  • Hi guys I’m back with bad news.


    After coming back from work today I started working on my box with uploading the DE light image to flash and damn was that a mistake, as my box is yet again stuck in the boot loop!


    I have than repeated the process that worked last night but without success, my box after successfully uploaded the image is tuck on booting.


    I’m really at a point to throw my box out of the window.


    Is it something I can do, I can’t think that yesterday it worked like a champ with a beta openPLI image and today it does not.


    Thanks to all on this board!

  • i think the image you try to put is corrupte ok relax max reload the image originale by rs 232 with dreamloader take about 1 hour


    then by dreamup open pli +simssl84

  • Back with the report. Nothing new here, uploaded with serial cable, recover bad sactor enabled it tooked 1.16 h! It finishes succesfully finds 15 bad sectors.

  • @rami, I have uploaded the original dream image in serial/lan mode, but it doesn't change nothing compared to other images, still stuck at bootload.


    I even waited for 3 minutes but It's the same.

  • Hi people,


    I would really like to thank the admins of this nice forum and especially @rami for helping me out with my DM 800 problem.


    After several tries and an incredible amount of time spent helping me out from the earlier mentioned people, we discovered that after uploading an image to the box I have to wait for cca 15 min of constant self-rebooting till the box shut down itself. Then I must unplug it from electricity, wait for a minute and then restart it and the image will boot without a problem. This situation is necessary just the first time I upload a new image, later it all works as it should.


    To alleviate the stress on the boxes flash I decided to use the plugin Dumbo, so I can have my favorite image in the USB memory key. Here I’m asking for a little help from you, is the latest openPLI image compatible with Dumbo and with what version? Please don’t call me lazy as I’m not trying it myself, but I’m afraid that my box will not stand to much testing any longer…


    Thanks in advance
