    DM800HD PVR Stuck booting after Sim2 Skin install

    Hi All

    I have a DM800HD PVR OpenPli Sim2
    Using the remote control Ive navigated to the SIM2 addons and installed a Skin "FULL-HD" - on reboot - its now stuck on Booting... gets about 3/4 of the way and just stays there. Visually all I can see is the OPENPLi startup screen on the TV. No error messages.

    Ive read previous posts suggesting to FTP on and delete the folder contained in: /usr/share/enigma2 which Ive done, rebooted and has made no difference.

    Also, I had performed a backup to USB (via the remote control GUI) prior downloading the SKIN and making any changes.
    I have FTP's to the USB and copied over the backup file 'enigma2' to the /usr/share/enigma2 which I thought would have reverted every thing back to my 'default' setup - but its still stuck booting?

    Can anyone help please . Thanks in advance.

          Wasnt aware of DCC package and didnt get a chance to try but will remember for the future - thank you for the heads up.

          I'd given up hope and a friend has just started re-flashing just as I saw your post.

          Do add-ons (skins etc) always make the Dreambox so vunerable?


          PS. Guess this thread can be closed - Cheers
