Guide: How to Create a DM500 Dreambox Image

**glyndwrw** · 19th December, 2008, 03:43 PM

I am not sure if this is where I should post this but I recently loaded a DK image on my DREAMBOX 500c. I installed the channels but was unable to change the keys as there was no Keys/List directory. Can anyone advise me what I need to do

Make sure you have the correct files in /var/keys and /var/etc.

If you are starting the emu in telnet, it should give some indication of what is wrong, i.e. missing files, etc.

Code:

/var/bin/evocamd &&

When you create an enigma image, all your files go in /var_init; /var is always empty.

The reason for this is, when the image boots for the first time, it copies everything from /var_init to /var. It only does this on first boot or if you have selected the 'factory reset' option.

You should be asked to select the language, timezone and PAL. This is the image configuring the /var/tuxbox/config/enigma/config file.

The config file is useful for setting default options.

When you select Menu > Setup > Expert Setup, you have a few options that you can 'tick'. These are defined in the config file. To find out what each line does by comparing the file before and after you change an option. Reboot to take effect.

Is there anyway of altering or adding to the var_init directory & saving the changes, so that the new editions or alterations apply after a factory reset.

How many differences, or what else do I need to have a go at this, but for a Neutrino based image? I wouldn't mind having a play at this, and testing myself out, but I tend to like the Neutrino stuff better...

Anybody like to give me a few hints, and words of advice please?!

Sorry if this in the wrong section BTW!
