Hope somebody can help me.

This Dreambox is probably the worst thing I have ever bought!

It was working fine up until about 1 hour ago. I attempted to manually re-scan 9.0E and the box froze with blue bars at the top of the screen.

I had no option other than to pull the plug.

Now everytime that it loads it gets up to showing the GP2 image and the OSD says:
dhcp...
/flash/vmlinux.9z

and that is it.

Any thoughts?

No idea what the problem is but I say you try a reflash.
Maybe it overheated and something got corrupted when it crashed?

Dunno much about your box m8 but if it was mine i would reflash the image and start over.. probably quicker in the longrun :)

Is it real DB800 or a clone ?

If its a clone you will have to use a different bootloader ....

If you are getting a error message in display reads boot # 72 (xxxxxxxxxxx) ?
Then try a later image with r72

I have propblem with booting. Sometimes is off and do nothing and sometimes is on display only logo DREAM MULTIMEDIA. DM800 start maybe after 20x attempts.

Is it this second stage 72 solution for this?
Thx
