Hi

Use this with DreamUp to do a complete erase of your flash before loading the new Eagel V2 image.

This will reach sectors of the flash that DreamUps erase will not.

 Eagle Setup Guide
Eagle Setup Guide

Here is a quick guide how I setup my New Eagle Linux Box

Very important notice:
Make sure to switch off and unplug your Eagle Linux box from the mains before attaching or unattaching any cables, otherwise it can cause internal damage to the box.

1. Download the following 2 Tool programs, this is all you need to start with:

---Flashwizard Pro v6.3
---Dreambox Control Centre v2.95
2 Download the latest Eagle V4 image
3. With your TV & PC switched off, Setup your New Eagle Linux Box and firmly connect all cables, including a LAN cable to your router.

4. Switch on and setup Language, PAL & Timezone settings.

5. Now choose your LNB & Motorised system setup.
Then scan the satellites for channels.

6. You now need to setup your Communication Settings.
The best way to find out what they are is using Dreambox Control Centre v2.95
This has a function to search for the IP address of your PC, Eagle Box & Router.
Just run the program and select "Connection Type" to Router.
When you have found the IP addresses you need to enter them in your Eagle Expert Settings/Communication Settings as follows:
IP: = IP address of your Box.
Netmask: = 255.255.255.0
Type: = LAN
Nameserver: = IP address of your Router.
Gateway: = IP address of your Router.
DHCP: = Checked
Enable Network:= Checked
Save Settings then Reboot.

7. You now need to create a Backup of your Original Eagle Image to PC.(Just in case)
Start FlashWizard Pro v6.3 & click on "Configuration and Utilities".
In "Connecting parameters":
Enter your Dreambox IP.
Login = root
Password = eagle

Now click on "Install a firmware into FLASH memory"
Click "Flash Image backup" and follow the instructions to save the file to PC.
That's it, you now have a Backup image of the original software of your Eagle Box.

8. To install a new Image of your choice use the same program FlashWizard Pro v6.3:
Click the "Install a firmware into FLASH memory"
Click on the "Yellow folder icon" to navigate to your downloaded image file.
When complete, close FlashWizard Pro v6.3 and reboot your Eagle Box.

9. Download & Install a CAM of your choice via the Blue Button Panel/Addons
I am currently using CCCam 2.08 (Full) ( See 10 for how to)
After installation you must switch the CAM on:
Press the Blue Button, then with the Left or Right Arrow Keys, select CCCam 2.08.
Then click Start\Restart Cam.

10. You need to download and install a config file for CCcam 2.08
1. Press Blue Button.
2. Press Ppanel.
3. Press Eagle setup
4. Press Download Latest Panel and when prompt agree to next questions so you get latest version of panel
5. Press Exit,Exit,Exit to get out of there
6. Then, press blue twice and the latest version of Cpanel will be there.
7. Download Emus and choose CCCam 2.0.8 full, that way all the configs come with it

11. Download the Latest Eagle Keys via The Eagle Control panel.

12. Reboot your receiver to save all new settings.(Menu\Shutdown\Reboot Now)

Important: Don't forget to check that your Eagle is not blocked from the network in your Firewall.

Hope this is a bit of a starter & of some help.
