Hi,
I just downloaded BlackHole-1.4.4-E-bm750_usb.zip, extracted it to usb stick (formatted to FAT 32 I am nearly certain),.
I have only the vuplus/duo folders on the stick and the 3 files inside.

When I switch off the box , plug in the USB stick on the front and restart I get "reading USB" which then changes to "programming" on the vu+display, and it stays like that for ages. No tv screen output.

Should this be happening?
If so, how long before something else happens?
 
I did that Artorious.
This doesnt need a HDD installed, does it?
Mine is external via USB (unplugged during reflash)
 
It turns out that the reason it was not working is that the box was still connected to the computer via ethernet cable. removed that and it worked straight away

Hmmm....very interesting!
I will enjoy testing this finding!

However Gd4U human 19!
Have Fun W\BH Image.
 
Now that I am in...
The reason I changed image was that I could not connect to the box via Filezilla or telnet. I was on Vix 1.2 which didnt gice me an option to restart these daemons. When setting up this image I chose not to set a password.
Using Filezilla (on Ubuntu 10.10) I still get.. connection refused by server. I was using root/passowrd to connect, also tried root/root. Still no luck.
This was with my firewall switched off (guarddog). UFW is also disabled
Connection also refused with telnet.
any ideas?

I don't know the image you are using but i suggest to change it with another who has the managment of services like BH images :)
 
I used to be able to use filezilla with vix 1.2 before it collapsed. That's what is so confusing.
Ubuntu can definitely see the box as "SFTP File Transfer on bm750" is visible in the network folder
 
Its an FTP program. I use it in Linux. I think its l also available in windows. Thanks for taking the time and effort
 
4DCC program,using with Vu+, yes the same!

Yes with Filezila,,,,just tested it, and connected to Vu+,,,,very interesting program,,,will explore it more, later on,,,Thanx for it humn 19!
 
Are the default username and passwords for the vu+ "root" and "password"?

There is no default password. The username is root, leave the password field blank when connecting using filezilla the first time.

Set a password later using telnet to connect, and the 'passwd' command.
