usb slot

[ifearnobeer]

Is there a command to enable/disable the usb slot.I have tried to flash an image loads of times using different usb stix but the sf8 just loads normally with tv channels.I have also gone into the image manager set-up and tried to change location from..../flash/hdd to /flash/usb using the arrow buttons but it will not change from hdd it seems to not recognise the usb slot.i have been using the vix tutorials with the latest flash and i have a octogon sf8.Any suggestions.Thanks.

The USB slot is checked during bootup, so no need for code.

What format is the USB drive in, exfat or fat32? Try reformatting it with the tool mationed in guide or use a different one.

It' formated with fat32,i've also downloaded the format tool recomended by vix.I'll try all different formats and see what happens.Thanks

Only fat32 will work if flashing by USB. You would be better off trying another stick.

You can transfer an image to /media/hdd and install through image manager if you wish to.

Make sure you use a small stick (4 or 8 GB, or smaller).
