    Default ### How to flash a dm800 via web browser ###

    DM800 Flashing firmware by Browser

    Flashing a new firmware by Browser

    What you need to flash

    You need the image file you want to flash. Image files have the extension *.nfi. You can't flash other
    images like *.img files. Don't try it - it won't work.

    You need either a DHCP server, a configured bootloader or a serial cable and a terminal program
    like HyperTerm.

    You need a browser, and a network cable. If you connect the Dreambox directly to the PC,
    you need a cross cable, if you connect trough a switch/hub/router you need a normal
    (non-cross) cable.

    To flash a new image, you can use the second stage loader. It must be present and not broken.

    The following steps assume you have a DHCP server.
    If you don't have one, you have to setup an IP address in the bootloader's serial setup.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    - Power down the Dreambox, either using "shutdown" and by removing the power connector.
    Standby is not enough!

    - (1.) Press and hold the power button. Replug the power connector into the Dreambox.
    - (3.) A text "*** STOP ***" should appear. Now you can release the button.
    The bootloader entered the "waiting" mode.
    - (4.) Above the "*** STOP ***" text, there should appear an IP-address
    (four decimal values with a dot in between). If there appears the string "dhcp" instead,
    the box still searches for a DHCP server. Wait a bit. If it doesn't change, something doesn't
    work with the DHCP server. Check wether network cable is plugged in etc. If it just doesn't
    work, set an IP using the serial terminal

    [IMG][/IMG]

    Now, open a browser on your PC.
    (1.) enter in the address line "http://ip/" (where ip must be replaced with the value in the LCD).
    - (2.) on the bottom of the page, there's a link called "firmware upgrade". Click it.



    On the next page, you can select the flash image you want to flash. be sure that it has the ".nfi" extension.
    You can't flash other images (like .img)!
    - Click on "FLASH!" and wait. It might take some time to upload and flash the image.
    - Switch the box off again, and on again. The new image should be flashed and working.

    You have flashed the wrong bootloader to your box. If your box is for eg BL72 you cannot flash with a higher BL. Yiou need to reflash the right image with Dreamup using a null modem

    THE TRUTH
    The Hillsborough Independent Panel. 12/09/12

    Today's report is black and white.The Liverpool fans were not the cause of the disaster.
    The panel has quite simply found 'no evidence' in support of allegations of 'exceptional levels of drunkenness, ticketlessness or violence among Liverpool fans' and 'no evidence that fans had conspired to arrive late at the stadium' and 'no evidence that they stole from the dead and dying'.
