      if your intending on getting a E2 linux box which i think you are then get yourself a dm500s clone for ?40 from PRC and learn on that. its sd but is linux and 90% similar to a E2 box,regards mdt

          I have a dreambox but it won't pick up any sats. Do I need to change the img or some settings? My motor light doesn't come on with it either. When I use the a different box, it all works fine with changing anything.

            if its an e1 box load an e1 settings list, for an e2 box load an e2 settings list (found in the dreambox forum) and as long as it has a sat tuner (not c for cable or t for terrestrial) you are good to go

            yes it may need a new image, or some xml files etc, but those are questions for the appropriate dreambox section

            so it seems you already have a good starter box to learn on
