when you extracted the BH file , make sure you have a folder on the root of the usb drive that says vuplus

inside that folder make sure your nested folder now says solo2

inside that solo2 folder, make sure you have 5 files , 4 bin files and one update file, in total

lastly, make sure you are using the FRONT usb port, and have switched off the box using its rear mains switch, insert the stick, switch it on and it should read the usb stick and boot it, as per the tutorial at the top of this forum

your hdd would require initialising and formatting by your image, so it was probably unpartitioned and unformatted when installed , as it would be seeing as it was new

One other thing to check. Unlikely this applies in your situation, but just in case.

If you have any USB device plugged into the rear USB sockets, remove that before trying to load a new image.
