New Vuplus solo - trying to install VIX or VTI from usb - nothing after boot

fced

Vu+ Newbie
Hello
I just have buyed an Vu + Solo to replace my old dm800, On the Vu+ it was an experimental image (OE 2.6) and the box was booting correctly...
Now i('m trying to install a Vix image through USB...
when i put my usb stick and push reset button, the led light gone orange, then after a while the light flash in green... i remove the usb stick, push the reset button, the led go to green, but nothing is showing to screen, with vix image (2.2 / 2.1) the box don't finish the boot, my tv doesn't detect nothing on hdmi port... With VTI 3.0 image the box don't boot entirely, i have an enigma message (loading default setting)...

Any idea ?

Thanks
Cedric

ps: I have followed this procedure :
1. On the USB stick create a folder and name it vuplus inside that folder create another folder and name it solo.

2. Download the USB version of a image and unrar. Now send the boot, kernel and root file to the solo folder.

3. Insert your USB stick in the front USB port. Then on th rear of your solo press the reset button.

When the VU Solo start the standby light will be RED. You should see the led light on your USB flashing. This shows the SOLO is reading the USB stick.

After a while you'll see the LED on your USB stop flashing. When this happens it means your SOLO is been programmed from it's internal memory after reading the USB drive.

When your Standby light turns green the flashing process is over and you can remove the USB stick.

Press the reset button on the rear again and the Solo will boot into the enigma2 setup process.
 
Colleague,

Use BH 1.6.3 in flash and after that install meoboot (You have it default in installed BH image-green button) on Your previous formated USB.
Aftger that put .nfi image which You want to /media/usb/ MBoot Upload . After that install image with remote controle in meoboot. Wait that meoboot install image and it will start Your image from usb when process will be finished.
 
Hi friend,
thankyou for your answer,
i'm just trying to install my first image on flash (i suppose)... i will search after BA or Meoboot later, but for now i'm just trying to flash the box correctly...
Each time i reboot it (after installing image with the usb procedure) i have an "loading default setting" message...no way to do another thing... remote control seem controlling nothing, the led is green...
and the message stick to screen "loading default setting"
Something goes wrong in my flash... like if enigma have missed some setting files...
after boot i can telnet the box, and in /usr/lib/enigma/ there is nothing, no setting file, no skin files... the folder is empty...
 
Ok, let's do that.

1. Download BH 1.6.3 for vu+solo
2. Prepare empty USB formated in FAT32,create folder "vuplus" and in that folder another one folder "solo"
3. Downloaded BH image unrar and files kernel,boot and root send on Your USB in /vuplus/solo.
4. Put Usb on front usb port. ( no any other usb connected in same time)
5. Turn off Your box (press rreset button on rear )
6. Turn on Your box (press reset button on rear)

When the VU Solo start the standby light will be RED. You should see the led light on your USB flashing. This shows the SOLO is reading the USB stick.
After a while you'll see the LED on your USB stop flashing. When this happens it means your SOLO is been programmed from it's internal memory after reading the USB drive.When your Standby light turns green the flashing process is over and you can remove the USB stick.
Press the reset button on the rear again and the Solo will boot into the enigma2 setup process.
 
I do like this

1. Download BH image for VU solo
2.Format USB stick on PC Fat32
3.Unzip BH image
4.Copy image to USB ( You do not have to make maps ,just copy after UNzip)
5.Insert your USB stick in the front USB port.
7.Plug box in to 220 V.
7.When light turns green the flashing process is over.
8.Unplug box from 220V .Remove USB stick.Wait 30 sec.Plug box in to 220 V.
 
Should the led light be "Green fixed" or "Green flashlighting" when the flashing process is over ?
For now, i reboot the box when the led light is "Green flashlighting"

And with latest blackhole, after flashing it and rebooting it, i'm stuck at the "Blackhole - VU+ - Gui Starting" ... the box don't finish his boot...
may be the reseller have given me an default box, or an clone.. :((( or may be i'm doing an mistake in the flash process...
 
i don't know what mistake i was doing, but now flashing the box accross usb stick is working...
Probably because now i unplug power before inserting/removing usb stick instead of pushing reset button... and after the image is uploaded... Led light is Green and is flashlighting on vu solo when update is done...

I tried Blackhole latest version...
Thanks for help...
 
About the images, i have heard VTI or VIX images was the VU+ Team images ... but i'm surprised to found them in the forum subcategory : unofficiel images for VTI and VIX... and Blackhole in the main section of Images...

Can someone tell me what is the official vu plus solo / duo images ?
Is it Blackhole or VTI or VIX ?
