    TM Single-OE Newbie

    Purchased a TM Single OE to replace my Alien Box and loving my tm one which came with 4d pli image which is nice few things i cant quite get my head round and tried reading couple forums to see if theres any help so here it goes so far

    ipk files i keep finding 2 ipk files usually say 1.6 and 2.0 pli 3.0 being on 4d this is a pli image, have been trying 1.6 as presume for TM this is the correct one and have been ftp the ipk file to var/volatile/temp then going to telnet am i using the right command by putting opkg install /tmp/*.ipk just sometimes get message saying error.

    Secondly im wanting to change to vix image will i need factory reset or is it just a case of putting on memory stick and following the pdf guide i have found and also is there a limit to the size memory stick you can use ie alien shd was max of 4gb

    thanks a lot
    regards

    I cant help with the 4d image as i dont use it.

    with the ViX image you simply FTP the .ipk file to /tmp/ or var/volotile/tmp/ then on the receiver navigate to the following.
    Blue button> ViX> install local extension>

    or you can simply place the .ipk file onto a USB stick then while watching live tv ( making sure no menu's are open ), insert the stick into the receiver, you will then be presented with a yes / no nag screen asking if you wish to install the plugins.

    p.s the ViX 3.0 image uses OE 2.0 based plugins.

    I presume you are referring this guide ?.

    if yes just follow the instructions and you will be fine, there is no limit on USB size that i know of although i tend to use 2 or 4 GB sticks when flashing my receivers.

    Thats still in the tutorial i made ( the one i referred you to ), but it only has to be done once when booting the image for the first time after flashing a bootloader or loading Enigma2 onto a brand new virgin receiver to partition the flash properly.
