You can split your drive m8 no probs or better still use Wubi installer it installs ubuntu as if its an application from within windows,no need to partition or anything,can be uninstalled like any other windows application and when you boot your comp it presents you with the option of window's or ubuntu,
Thats what I'm using at the moment m8 and have had no problems so far.

Hey do any of you know what the best image is for NTL MMDS in Galway county, was home there at the weekend and got my mate up and running on NTL cable in the city (but still missing some of the movie channels), but couldn't get my brother's going on MMDS.

Anybody out there up and running on NTL MMDS Galway??

Thanks.

Blade quad seems to be a popular choice for people

when using ifa it always backs the image up c/program files/dboxifa/backups so all the images you have used will be in there that it has taken off the box you have flashed, ftp is simple few steps to take there are plenty of guides on here that i have put up myself memory serves me correct i think page 167 of this thread

Thanks Turner, It would be gd to be able to do that on own my instead of depending on a image that has all the extras already added. Personally do u not think that it is easier to just use the IFA with a cross over cable? Iv just went on2 Youtube to watch wat i think is ur Vid and im thinking it looks hard. (Can i just say great work with that vid, looks top class and thank you frm me and the rest of the Dbox users!!!!)
I know that u r able to transfer files into certain areas of the boxes HD but is that the only major difference??

Hi thanks for the kind words about my vid on utube....im going to do a few more on setting up ftp and flashing an image using the dbox....im working on it and it will be released in both xp and vista so yea it will take a while but it will happen soon n when it does it will be posted on the net for all to enjoy....ftp enables you to drop files ie bouquets services so channel scan is not needed when new image is loaded just makes life easy....

Hi All,
Thanks to this forum, for the past few months, I have been updating the codes on my Nokia DBox using the (formerly) Bigmaq toolbar.
For the last few days though, after losing most channels except for the terrestrial ones, no new codes have been updated.
I'm in Plymouth, and it's ex Telewest if that helps.
I'm now beginning to wonder if its something else as my neighbour's is still up and running.
Can anyone give me any help please!
Thanks
Sam

i posted a few threads back saying i have no epg, no time or no channels. i am almost positive i have a working image on the box. after a discussion with scouser he seemed to think it was a tuner problem. I am not doubting scouserbut i was just wondering if anybody else had similar problems and got box back working? i just want to double check before i send the dbox2 to the bin. thanks
