depends on the image , and depends on if you are using an mmc or not

each image is different and so a question like yours means absolutely nothing unless you qualify the statement with the image and version , and if its in the flash , mmc or hdd ?

I have EDG-NEMESIS 4.1 and 4.2 installed on MMC.

Thanks

you may well need to use the extra.url file and ftp it into the images , reboot and then you will probably have the option available for the extra downloads, thats if I remember correctly

so if the options are not available in the images themselves , you need that extra url loading in , if the cams etc are already listed in the image download addons section you can download them directly from the menu system applicable to the image used ( once your internet is up and running )

a bit ambiguous I know but each image is different , so check if any cams or plugins are available , if not then you need the extra.url

For EDG nemesis, any version, you will need the extra url file to get to the download section where the cams are kept.
The file goes in the var/etc folder and you will need to change its attributes to 755 and then a new section should appear when you press the blue button twice.
Any problems then reboot the box.
One thing to note about gbox with EDG is that you get 3 files with a *.orig ending in the keys folder. The way the gbox script is written these files will overwrite the standard 3 files without the *.orig ending (sorry not to put the file names but they could go against forum rules).
Put any customisations you have for gbox in the *.orig files and that will prevent your EDG overwriting your files.

I managed to install GBOX as EMU through extra.url
But its not working unfortunatly.

I have copied the neccessary files like cwshare,gbox_cfg etc etc,but still not working.

When i go to check VIRTUAL CARDS it says /tmp/share.info not found

PEER STATUS, it show my TECH ip....

It says also MAKE SURE g-Box is running, and there is sufficient disk space.

Any help please??
Thanks

No mate you don't rename those files I was talking about, you edit them and put your customisations inside.
Then when gbox activates it will overwrite the originals without the *.orig end with the files with your customisations inside. This means that when ever you activate gbox your info is kept intact.
The files with the *.orig ending are part of the gbox config download which is in a seperate download section to the gbox cam and contains both the *.orig files as well as the original ones that are installed into the keys folder.
