what ftp program you using? you should be able to see all directories and transfer to them if everything is flashed ok

If its not allowing to put it in their especially if you are using DCC, set a password

i use vu control center v0.2 it does everything and uses filezilla which hasnt given me any problems at all

I use DCC with no issues at all

var/tmp works for me everytime

just use var/volatile/tmp

Using DCC this folder worked fine for me. Once you FTP the .ipk file into this folder, right click on it in DCC and click on 755. Do not restart your receiver or it will delete the .ipk file.
Press Menu, Setup, VIX, IPK Installer and you should see the .ipk file. Press green to install, reboot and you should be good to go.

As has been said, the var/volatile/tmp folder is the tmp folder. In this image...

There is a symlink of /tmp to take you to var/volatile/tmp, so all should work as before. If it doesn't, you're likely using a poor ftp program...

you must have RESTORED a backup from another image (ie 1.3) you CAN NOT do this as it breaks the 2.0 image.
