Flash a new image and search the net for the magic files ftp them to the image and it will auto update. No need to input any codes.
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'. -
Yep the only way out is a reflash. I've done that lots of times by trying to record something when the directory is not properly mounted. This leads to the box running out of space and the image becoming read-only.Comment

Thanks for the advice, how do i reflash my Dbox2. I understand i need a null modem cable (15 pin) but i currently am doing everythinng from my laptop & im not sure how to reflash also.Comment

You don't need a null modem cable to flash a dbox2, all you need is a crossover ethernet cable.
Get yourself an FTP program, there's on in the download section.
Get your PC talking to the dbox2 and then you're ready to flash.
There's a guide here which will help you, it's for the dreambox box same principle.
How to Connect your Dreambox to your PC
FTP your img file to the /tmp folder on the box.
Then, using the remote, do the following on the box...
DBOX
SERVICE MENU
SOFTWARE UPDATE
EXPERT-FUNCTIONS
WRITE ONE PARTITION
FLASH WITHOUT BOOTLOADER
Select img file from the list and then ok.
Image will be flashed, takes about 2 mins then the box reboots.
When it comes back on it should have the new image on it.Comment

well im 80ish% there! Ive configured my PC but the dreambox guide is very different to my dbox2. I have flashfxp loaded, cross over cable connected but no joy!
on the dbox i think ive managed to save the IP, mask & gateway but have not got a clue what to do with broadcast. any advice on getting my PC to talk to this thing (sorry my luvley dbox) would be greatly appreciatedComment

Have you ajusted your network card to suit
Right click on your network

Scoll to internet protocol
You need the ip addy of your d box in the top line
1 above or below is best,although it will connect in close sequence
D box=192.168.1.110
Net w = 192.168.1.109 or111 thats an example
Hope this helps .................PaulIf your Happy with the Help push the Thanx button

hi all, i have followed all instructions and in the bottom right hand corner of flashfxp it says im connected (connected to 192.168.1.110) but im not seeing any files from the dbox which are supposed to appear in the left hand side of flashfxp. now that its saying im connected but no files are being displayed has baffled me totally! if i have missed anything please advise.Comment

It may have taken you to /root, click the yellow folder icon with the green arrow pointing upwards, see if that shows some folders.Comment
