FTP the image to the /tmp folder on the dbox then flash it using remote, usually

dbox
service
software update
expert functions
write one partition
flash WITHOUT bootloader
select image
red to confirm

What type off cable you using? I found a crossover cable with FashFXP to be very user friendly. Had probs with many other flash utilities. My Image worked 1st time.

i tried the ftp method....... flash one partition and then without bootloader but when it comes to choose image no image shows just blank nothing.....and i put the image in the /tmp folder this why im going bald

 

[standarren1975]

i just went to yweb tools and image flash then flash without bootloader it worked for me

yeah but the image has to show up for you to flash my image file that is placed in the tmp folder dosent show up at all so nothing to flash..... any one got the uboot.mot file for hyperterminal

If you reboot the box or turn it off after FTPing to /tmp you lose the contents of the folder.

Also some peeps make the mistake of FTPing to var/tmp.

Anyway glad you're fixed m8.
