E2 - For people stuck with Geeko :P on the VFD

[pr2]

Hello,

I have done some test and for people that get stuck with Geeko :P in the VFD it is because you remove the USB stick after the first step - Upgrade Screen - 1. upgrade USB.

You need to leave the USB stick after the reboot in this step, if you remove the USB stick you will get stuck into Geeko :P mode.

So for people with the problem, power off your Azbox, connect back the USB stick FAT32 formatted with Enigma 2 patch.bin file into the Azbox.
Power it up and you will see that you will have Rescue Mode in the VFD and then you will have the IP address received from DHCP.

Then start Azup enter the IP address and press update button.
Azup will tell you when to remove the USB stick.

At the very first reboot (without USB stick) you will again have Geeko :p for a while just wait (I know it seems always long when we wait) if nothing happens then try to press Menu key.

For people that have change the DOM with an SD or CF adaptator it is better to power off and power on the Azbox rather than just reboot.

Hope this help.

how long I should wait after upgrading to e2 and the first reboot without usb stick? 30 minutes still geeko:P and no e2.

Look what I've done:

1 . Load this patch.bin ( Enigma 2 ) file on FAT32 formatted USB Memory Stick (done)
2. Turn Off Your AzBox HD Device, put USB Memory Stick inside and Turn on AzBox HD Device (done)
3. Follow the procedure USB Update on the screen, after process is finished, remove the USB stick from the AzBox HD Device, and let AzBox HD to Reboot (done)

now I see "geeko :P" on vfd and nothing happens.

4. After reboot is finished, You should be in Enigma 2 AzBox HD Running state (hell no)

You need to reboot Azbox with the USB stick in place with enigma2 patch.bin, and then run AZUP to reinstall the patch.

I.P should be in VFD so you can run AZUP.

[tx0]

did I get you right I should put e2 stick back to azbox and complete these steps?


Transfer file update ( Located in RESCUE FILES folder ) to the /tmp folder and add CHMOD 755 permission, by clicking on file with

right click, Properties , and than put 755.

Transfer file, backup_kernel ( Located in RESCUE FILES folder ) to /MMP folder.

-----

2. Use putty, attached to this folder to conect on Your AzBox HD running E2 by telnet.

and run this commands :

./update /MMP/backup_kernel


Wait until process finish, and that is all.

and after finishing that I'll reboot and get e2 working?

done this and I'm back to 0.9.5020 now for God sake could anyone tell me how can I install e2 step by step

Do you see your IP on the VFD?




...

8. On VFD You will see RESCUE MODE and IP Address will be listed.


9. On Your PC run application called AzUP by our team member telesat, enter IP of Your AzBox HD Device and click on UPDATE


10. Wait that Update is finished, and You will have again AzBox HD Official Firmware

I don't need original fw. please read above b4 writing - I want to install enigma

[bobster]

When you get "RESCUE MODE?" confirm it with OK button on remote. Then you will get IP. Then on Windows start AzUP and write that IP and click update.

I dont have file named AzUP. what I do have is Filezilla which is FTP client and Putty which is SSH/TELNET. I believe that AzUP is just a zip for these files. Now where can I get that update button which you talking about? As far as I understand it you guys are telling me how to reverse back to original firmware. I can do this.

What I want - is to upgrade to E2 kernel. When I'm doing this I getting stuck with geeko message

[bobster]

Have you downloaded E2_1.0.21_elite_premium.rar?
AzUP setup.exe is inside the archive.

[xanadu]

I dont have file named AzUP

AZUP came in the original enigma2 zip file

When you run it, enter your box IP as shown in AZ VFD, then ensuring the USB with E2 patch.bin is still in the Azbox, start AZUP.
That will install E2.

yes I've installed it.

What is that? Download E2_1.0.21_elite_premium.rar

[xanadu]

What is that? Download E2_1.0.21_elite_premium.rar

It's the first public E2 Beta test with video not working.

All it needs is the latest driver which is now released.

[tx0]

doh! I 've done this already!! I dont have azup.exe. the only explanation is that my anti-virus removed this file.

DO YOU HAVE AZUP.EXE ON YOUR PC AND WHERE IT IS?

I asked tx0. Not you m8. You were fast :)

[007.4]

@tx0
Download and un-rar the file "E2_1.0.21_elite_premium.rar"
You will then see "AZUp setup.exe".
Run this file and it will create AZup.exe in the folder of your choice.

I was using the wrong file to install azup. It was AzboxEnigma2RESCUE.exe

I've loaded e2 finally. thanks guys. no wifi tho and how do I mount an usb stick?

[iq180]

Have read the info. Still can not get ip when try to put officail firmware back on az prem. plus. Instructions say that an ip must be on vfd in resque mode to start the f.w.on usb with azup1.1 We have no menue -no screen period. Have watched E2 load with AZUP 1.1 and all the standard procedures listed in instuctions took place- we think. Still no screen and can only reboot after holding power button on remote- we have no other control with remote .Thanks for any response.

[pr2]

Hi,

Do you rename the official firmware binary into: patch.bin (so suppress all the version reference before patch.bin) and copy it to the root of a brand newly FAT32 formatted USB stick?

If you didn't fall into Rescue Mode it is because there is no patch.bin file on the root of your USB stick.
