BARRY ALLEN
How do you update BA - updates keep coming, but if you already have it installed - how do you change it??
the file should be a ipk file, if its in a zip extract it then rename the file
Reboot to your flash Image,
then use DCC to copy the file over to tmp on the dreamBox ( or use an ftp program )
but first rename the file to barryallen.ipk if necessary
Then using DCC Telnet this to the DreamBox
cd /
ipkg install /tmp/barryallen.ipk
Don`t miss out the spaces
Then hard reboot back to your image
or
1) Prerequisites
During the installation there has to be CF
card in the Dreambox (attention: insert or remove
into Dreambox 7025 cardreader only when Dreambox
is turned off), or an USB stick which is successfully
detected (in case of problems try an USB Hub).
If Barry Allen on USB is used then put
the CVS Image from OoZooN in Flash, because this image
has the USB drivers permanently built into the kernel.
If neither CF card not USB Stick are attached then
installation takes place on the Harddisk. Because
the images then also run from there it will run
permanently and it could be necessary that you disable
Harddisk Standby in the images to allow running Barry
Allen stable from Harddisk.
2) Installation
First boot from Flash and then copy the file
enigma2-plugin-extensions-barryallen*.ipk
to /tmp with ftp (TCP/IP must be working already).
If you have an image in Flash that offers a Blue
Pannel Manual Addon Install, then you can use this
functionality to install the ipk file.
If not, then install Barry Allen by entering the
following commands in a Telnet session:
cd /
ipkg install /tmp/enigma2-plugin-extensions-barryallen*.ipk
Then restart enigma2 and the Barry Allen Plugin
shoudl show up under Games / Plugins.
In the Images installed by Barry Allen you don't have
to install the Barry Allen Plugin anymore.
The Barry Allen Plugin integrates himself into then
automatically during the image extract.
And you can remove Barry Allen if you are booted
from Flash:
ipkg remove enigma2-plugin-extensions-barryallen
3) Usage
There is now the enigma2 Plugin of Barry Allen included
under Games / Plugins of the enigma2 menu,
which offers the full functionality of Barry Allen.
For extracting of nfi images in Barry Allen copy the
image files to /MB_Images (normally a link to
/media/hdd/MB_Images created during Barry Allen
installation)
If there are Problems with image extraction or other tasks
with the enigma2 plugin try doing it in telnet:
cd /media/ba
ba.sh extract nameoftheimage
On the next reboot this new Image should be available
in the bootmanager for choosing to boot it and then it
can be customized and used as usual.
The Bootmanager now should remember the last booted
image and hence recordings from Deepstandby should work
now.
Have Fun using Barry Allen on the Dreambox !!!!
