It's odd, I've tried to get a fresh image from OpenA.tv site, I can't get a password reminder, it says email not recognised, but I can't register, it says email already used. I probably registered there donkey's years ago. Couldn't register with work email either.

Very impressed with it so far ,its got some very nice features and loads of plugins on the feed. For example , you can run the image off a usb drive so the flash memory size isn't restricted. You can have different images on different partitions ,so you can multiboot. Anybody else using PurE2 ?

deezell wrote: » Yes, all thanks to a plugin called Image Manager, and solid state hard drives, or SSDs. a modest capacity USB stick will do, assuming you don't need 100's of GB for recording. I used a 16GB stick I had lying around. I formatted this as EXT4, essential, then split it into 4 partition, 3 of 1.5 GB and one on 11.5 GB. the latter I mounted as HDD, for epg and some recording, the other 3 as SDA1, 2 and 3. Using the tutorial from Gorski about halfway through this page, (Ignore the one from Ahmed Gayze),https://www.linuxsat-support.com/thread/137448-explained-how-to-install-enigma2-image-on-the-external-flash-by-plugin-image-man/ I installed PurE2 image on SDA3, using Image manager for both install, then to reboot to the Pure2 partition. This worked well, though Im not that taken with it. I then installed image manager also on PurE2, this allowed me to boot back to Flash, where Hyp. 4.5 lives. I then used IM again, this time to copy hyp 4.5 to SDA 2, and booted from there. So now my Hyperion is running from the USB, giving me buckets of memory for additional plugins, etc. It's flying. I've a spare partition to try another image on

cyndale wrote: » Great stuff, thanks for that! 1. Do I install ImageManager via Spark or Enigma? 2. I have a 16GB USB that I have for the enigma2 picons in a folder, do I need to partition it or can I have Hyperion V4.5 on the same USB?
