How to flash a dreambox on linux??

  • There is a working link in a thread here. I downloaded the universal dream up two weeks ago. Just search for it.

    Ok, found it, i didn't realise it was in a packed version.


    So, now i have unpacked it using UPX, what do i do with it now? How do i open it?


    Thanks

  • my file is call DreamUp_LInux_1_3 (or something like this).


    step 1: chmod 755 DreamUp_Linux_1_3
    step 2: ./DreamUp_Linux_1_3

    Thanks Dre, but now i get "No such file or directory" - what does the ./ mean infront of it in the 2nd step?

  • execute in the current directory. you must be in the directory where you've stored the file. otherwise it won't work.

    I'm definitely in the right directory as all other steps have worked. This is what i've done:



    Code
    pav@pav-desktop:~$ sudo chmod 755 DreamUP_Linux_1_3_beta
    pav@pav-desktop:~$ sudo  ./DreamUP_Linux_1_3_beta
    sudo: unable to execute ./DreamUP_Linux_1_3_beta: No such file or directory
    pav@pav-desktop:~$


    Does that make it any clearer?


    Thanks for your help

  • what's this upx stuff?


    I only downloaded the file here, changed the permissions to 755 and then started it.
