    Download the latest vix duo build from their site and install directly via usb. No need to update bootloader.

        Unfortunately , this seems to be a common fault with this box.
        I aswell as others have reported the ssme problem.
        However others are using them without issues.

        Did it work at all after installing a hd

                I contacted them on xxxxxxxxx. They got back to me quickly offering advice, asking me to install an older blackhole image. However after the failed attempt to fix the box, I had to be persistant in e-mailing them asking for a returns address. Then finally they sent me an address and returns form.

                      yep, I had the same messege + no follow up message. Contacted them again and then they sent the image [ black hole 2.07 ].
                      tried it no luck, so contacted them again to get returns address.

                                Disappointed to hear that,these recent clones ,Mini Duo,Cloud iBox 2 and 3 etc ,all seem to be problematic .
                                I was thinking of getting a Mini Duo but not worth the hassle if its faulty and needs to go back to China ,I have had enough of that in the past .
