    bootloader for edision mini os twin sat

    Hi all, I have an edision mini os twin sat, I would like to find the bootloader file for this box, anyone can point me in the right direction please?
    This box is a second hand box, it has a different image on it (skyK) at the moment and I would like to go to vix, so my question is, do I need to upload boatloader first and after upload the latest vix image? or can I go straight on uploading the vix image without uploading first the bootloader?
    Many thanks for your help

    Bootloaders are only available when the manufacturer releases one. I don't think there is a newer one than teh one the receiver is shipped with.

    You are mixing up images with skin. If you want openvix on your receiver, install/flash the image

    You don't a need boot loader. Just put image on USB and follow flashing guide. http://www.openvix.co.uk/index.php/g...and-tutorials/
