Hello,

E2 is still experimental so don't use it to watch TV with all your families, there are still bugs and some feature are not yet implemented.

This is just for people willing to test it and report bugs.

OK then download the 1.0.27 version it is working out of the box.

Unpack the rar file, install AZup 1.1

Copy patch.bin to a FAT32 formatted USB key (with free space because Azup will need also to write on it).

Plug the key into your Azbox, reboot select 1. upgrade USB.

You Azbox will reboot leave the USB key into your Azbox (don't remove it).
The VFD display will show you and IP address and press upgrade.

AZup will tell you when it is time to remove the USB key and reboot your Azbox.
Then you are in E2.

But there is a full Readme provided with 1.0.27 so please read it for more detailled explanation.
