    just a nudge in the right direction would be greatly appreciated

    Hi all

    Well my dreambox arrived today from DVBMonkey despite all the horror stories. I was a bit concerned about having to plug a null modem cable and re-flash the box but when I booted the thing up it had a digital kaos screenie and seemed ready to rock.

    I did a transponder scan and all that and got all the terrestrial channels. Then I managed to source a nagrarom7.bin file and stuck it in scee and keys folders in var, rebooted waited expectantly and got bugger all. Re-scanned the channels, held down info restarted Evocamd 2.12 and still nothing.

    I have since spent about two hours trawling this wonderful forum and am hoping someone out there will give us an idea of where I am going wrong.

    You've got the ROM but have you got the keys?
    E Pluribus Unum

    From the one to whom much has been entrusted, even more will be demanded!

      If you have transferred all the magic files across,
      then try holding the info button for a few seconds when on sky
      sports one
      then restart the softcam, should then start unscrambling

        I reckon that could be the issue as I only have one file on the folder!!!!!

        so the question is: where do I find the keys?

          Thanks guys I've found them

          all I need now is for my null modem cable to arrive in the post. Looks like I fried my image when I tried to update it from a telnet session. I got a segmentation error and then a black screen

          Keep rocking!!!

            okay, have borrowed a null modem cable and sorted my dreambox yay! I have uploaded the 3 nagrarom7 files to scee and transferred across all the files in keys from dreambox_stuff restarted evocamd 2.12 on s*y sports 1 and waited patiently.

            Nada.

            I have chmod all of keys and scee folder to 755 (including the files within the folder) and still nothing. I have even tried putting the rom files in the keys folder.

            Have I got to generate a key to put in the Keylist.txt or something.

            I am so tired Please help.

              sounds like you have the wrong roms and keys, assuming you live somewhere orther than the greater dublin area you need the nov fix do a search and follow the instructions.
              that should sort you out

                reading your first post i noticed you put the files in the wrong folders

                keys to var/keys
                scce to var/scce
