Factory reset via telnet

[Devilfish]

I've been playing about tonight and discovered this while looking through some files...don't know how useful it is to anyone but never the less....

If you have a DM500, DM56xx or DM7000....

eraseall /dev/mtd/1 && reboot

If you have a DM600-PVR, DM500+ or DM7020...

rm -R /etc/enigma && killall -9 enigma

It's as easy as that!

Thanks that's a nice tip

Yeah, you can also clear the kernel of the DM600 (similar to the eraseall for the DM500) with the following; causing it to boot into recovery mode:

mount -o remount,rw /boot
rm /boot/*
reboot
