I downloaded through Addons the Rhianna skin for my 800
I went into skin settings and selected the skin
The Enigma2 rebooted and is now stuck in a loop as it boots, then crashes (fatel error), then boots, then crashes
Anyone able to tell me how to fix this issue Please:117:
Preferably through DCC as I can`t communicate with box through null serial (ref previous post)

whilst box is continualy rebooting go to /etc/enigma2 open the file named config with the txt editor and delete the line that looks similar to this
config.skin.primary_skin=hd_glass/skin.xml
then save the file and the box will boot normally with default skin

I really thought I`d lost it for good
Thankyou very much for the advice it worked perfectly.

I`m learning more and more each day.
I`ve got Black Hole in flash, but not sure which version (how do I find that information?)
Thanks

No problem m8, i've had it happen to me a few times.
These Dreamboxes are really not as fragile as some seem to think.
Worst case scenerio is you would of had to re-install the image.
Don't forget to uninstall that dodgy skin ;)

just for an update guy's
should you have an offending skin, just FTP tp your box /usr/share/enigma2 and delete the bugger then reboot it'll reboot into your defalut skin.
