Hi,

I need some help my box will no longer boot and I think my hard drive has failed.

Yesterday I was trying to tidy up my channel lists and remove old unwanted bouquets. I used the below through putty and rebooted the box and now it wont boot.


init 4 && sleep 10 && rm -f /etc/enigma2/lamedb && rm -f /etc/enigma2/*.tv && rm -f /etc/enigma2/*.radio && rm -f /etc/enigma2/*.del && init 3

I could still access the box through FTP and SSH and was able to pull off the last image backup I'd taken and I tried to flash from USB. I've tried 2 USB sticks and neither worked and I think turning it on and off constantly has killed the harddrive.

With hard drive in the screen sits on a blue VU+ logo and does not move, if I remove the hard drive it gets to the OpenVix background but keeps looping.

I've attached a crash log from the box can anyone help or tell me what they need to help.

I can still access FTP and Putty.

Thanks,

I'm back in, took a punt and removed everything from /etc/enigma2 and copied it back in from my extracted image file and boom.

Just need to source a new hard drive now :-(

I put the hard drive back in whilst the box was up and it came online no issues.

This got me thinking when I was trying to get it back up and running yesterday I'd selected another image to boot from on the Open Multi boot screen.

I went into the plugin and made sure OpenVix was selected for next boot and restarted the box and everything came back up as expected.

All resolved.
