Hi,
I'm trying to help a friend with a VU+ Duo - it's stuck on the OpenVix loading screen with a spinning Vix logo which it never gets past, even after a fresh flash. For comparison I also tried flashing OpenATV instead of Vix (same issue) and I've tried replacing the hard drive - same situation.
iirc I can still ssh to the machine in its "hung" state but can never get any response from the remote control, so have no access to Menu and other options. Currently it's in my workshop with a LAN connection but no connections to either of the satellite tuners - that couldn't be relevant, could it?
I wondered if there was a "deeper reset" option open to me from this state, where the flash would be totally, absolutely "all partitions wiped" reset over & above what installing the firmware does to the internal filesystem....assuming it does anything at all.
Thanks!
