How to flash a VU+ Duo using a USB stick

[punisher]

Where did u download the image from? Also the boot file is 0kb so its not a problem. Redownload the image from this forum the latest one and give that at ry again

If you downloaded the image from here especially VIX, just extract the file and put the folder in it called VUPLUS on to the fat32 formatted stick and put this into the USB - make sure no other USB is plugged in, shutdown and power off and than on.

The USB files required to flash are placed in the vuplus/duo folder in the USB drive.
There are 3 files whch if come in a zip, need to be extracted to the duo folder.
The 3 files are :
boot_cfe_auto.jffs2
kernel_cfe_auto.bin
root_cfe_auto.jffs2

those are the three that knocked my vix and enigma 11 visuals off,

As regards formatting your memory stick to PC FAT32 I have found that older pen drives like mine (bought 2004) and only do FAT are capable of flashing the image.

Hey,

About to upgrade to vix 2.2. Just wanna make sure how do I back up my settings and more importantly my bouquets so I won't have to set up everything after the 2.2 is on.

Any guides on that? Couldn't find any...

Thanks!

use dreambox edit or dreamset to backup your bouquets and make sure if your using a softcam to backup the configuration files. then you should be ok to flash the new image. once your on VIX 2.2 run a full update via the blue button > VIX. you can also backup your image and settings directly from within VIX 2.2 again via the blue button > vix > backup manager and image manager.

There's no "backup manager" on my vix menu. Only "image manager" is there (plus 5 other things).

From where do I d/l and install the "backup manager"?

You can use Dreamboxedit to backup your bouquets.
